Therapy in St Albans and Online
Hello, I’m Rebecca, a Psychodynamic Counsellor based in St Albans, Hertfordshire, working with adults experiencing emotional challenges including relationship difficulties, anxiety and low self-esteem.
It’s common to feel unsure when you are considering starting therapy, but it can be an important step towards change and growth. Beginning therapy is often a way of acknowledging that your thoughts and feelings matter and you are taking care of yourself.
Therapy offers a space to slow down, speak freely, and feel listened to without judgment. It is time just for you, where you do not have to look after anyone else.
If you are feeling overwhelmed or stressed, therapy can offer support and help you begin to make sense of things. Many people find relief simply in being heard and understood. While we cannot change the past, exploring it can help it feel less heavy and bring a clearer understanding of yourself and your choices.
I offer a free 20-minute introductory call, online or by phone from anywhere in the UK. This is an opportunity to ask questions and for me to understand your needs, so we can decide together if therapy is right for you.
What can I expect from therapy?
Therapy offers you a reliable and steady place to reflect on your life and can provide relief from difficult feelings within a supportive and confidential space. Thoughts, feelings and patterns in relationships can be explored and over time, a deeper understanding of yourself can be gained. Your relationship with yourself can improve and the judgements you might place on yourself can start to loosen their grip. Greater clarity about both past and present experiences can be achieved. Therapy can also help you build more authentic and meaningful relationships with others and support you in making any changes you might want for your life.
You and Your Therapist
Research consistently shows that the strongest predictor of successful therapy is the quality of the relationship between client and therapist. Naturally, it can take time to feel comfortable talking to someone new but from the start it should feel like a non-judgemental space for you to talk about whatever you choose.
Over time, this relationship can help bring a deeper understanding of patterns in your thoughts, feelings and relationships.
