Katia Houghton Therapy

General information

Sometimes life can be difficult. Changes in circumstances and in relationships, divorce, loss and bereavement, as well as stresses in the family and at work, can make us feel anxious, depressed and alone.

Sometimes these feelings are difficult to cope with. We may try to deal with them by pushing them away or by failing to look after ourselves. We may seek comfort in alcohol or drugs or risky sexual behaviour. We may express our unhappiness in anxiety attacks, eating disorders or the urge to self-harm.

Beginning with what brings you to counselling, talking in a confidential and non-judgemental environment can help you make sense of your current feelings, work out how you interact with others through your interactions with me, and explore your experiences and what it means to be you. By working out where you are, it often becomes possible to move forward.

Therapy can help you become aware of past patterns in your life, understand yourself better, and discover new ways to cope.

If you would like to talk about any difficulty, large or small, you can contact me by phone, text or email to arrange an initial consultation, or just to discuss whether therapy might be the right way forward for you.
