Annabel Rich Counselling Twyford, near Winchester, Hampshire

Sometimes life can be challenging and through no fault of our own rarely goes the way that we planned it. At these times we can feel a bit stuck, lost or broken. We can then experience confused thoughts and feelings. Whatever you are struggling with in your personal life, relationship or work life, counselling can help.

As an experienced and accredited counsellor, who has worked with clients with a variety of issues, I can provide you with a confidential space to help you to understand yourself better, to achieve insight and the ability to resolve a situation. I can help you to explore potential changes and support you in those changes to bring back a sense of control. Making changes can help you to lead a happier life.

This may be the first step towards the changes to your life that you have been looking for. Together we can work to restore balance to your life and increase your sense of well being.

Counselling is about talking to someone in confidence, whom you trust, about your worries and will give you the opportunity to be with someone who is trained to listen. Counselling can give you a place where you can be open and honest, and a place where you will not be judged or told what to do.

I will provide you with the space and time for you to explore and express your thoughts and feelings. Working together I can help you explore your situation to help you to achieve new insight and awareness, and perhaps a new understanding of yourself. Together we can help you to develop the ability to resolve or effectively manage a situation in your life, to empower you to make your own choices and changes so you can lead a more fulling life.

Counselling sessions take place online or over the phone. Counselling in this way is an ideal means for many individuals to seek flexible, confidential and professional support. There is a body of evidence that suggests that the outcome to these forms of counselling are equal to the effects of traditional face to face counselling. Online (video counselling) and phone counselling allows you to attend the session from the comfort of your own home. You need to ensure that you are in a confidential safe space and ensure that you will not be disturbed. Click here to find out how to make the most of online and telephone counselling sessions.
