Are you finding it hard to navigate your relationships right now?

Relationships can be an amazing and fulfilling part of life.

​

However, sometimes they can be confusing and painful.

​

All relationships go through difficulties from time to time, which can feel hard to navigate.

​

  • Maybe you've realised you feel resentful in your relationship but don't know how to change this.

​

  • Or you want to talk about your needs but worry it will push your partner away or cause conflict.

​

  • Or perhaps you have noticed that it is always you who has to say sorry, even when you are sure it was not your fault.

​

  • Or maybe you've noticed a pattern in your relationships that is confusing you, like pushing the person you love away.

​

Well, you're not alone.

Welcome, I'm Alison

​Hi, I'm Alison and I know from experience how difficult this can be, which is why I took the step to train as a counsellor.

 

Now, I work with people struggling to navigate their relationships - whether that's romantic partners, family, work colleagues or friends to help them make sense of what's happening.

 

So, if your relationship makes you feel lonely, tired, obligated, confused, guilty, angry or fearful, then perhaps it is time to find how to move away from unhelpful patterns - you're in the right place.

Oh, and if you notice any spelling and grammar mistakes on my wesite, this is because I am dyslexic. I welcome any constructive feedback so, I can address any mistakes or oversights.

You are always the one in the wrong and feel very tired, obliged and guilty. You might worry as though you will fall into another painful relationship.

Learn to accept yourself fully and not let past hurts get in the way of present relationships and future decisions.

Take control of your life and do the things that you want to do but have never quite worked out how to.

Quick, cost effective and resolves long standing issues in a fully supportive environment.

Clinical Supervision

I'll meet you where you are at with your counselling abilities. Whether that is helping you to build your counselling skills or as two colleagues coming together. I will help you with your ethical dilemmas and in helping your clients to the best of your ability.

I create a warm, collaborative, non-judgmental environment with respectful, tactful challenge, where you will feel safe to bring your client issues.

​

I am a trauma-informed integrative therapist who works in a predominantly person-centred way. I bring in elements of Internal Family Systems, Psychodynamic, Transactional Analysis, Gestalt, CBT, Somatic, and Polyvagal Theory.

​

My particular interests are in narcissistic abuse, difficult relationships, in particular those with emotional childhood neglect, neurodiversity and couples counselling.

​

Supervision is £70 for 90 minutes, with reductions for counsellors in training and newly qualified counsellors.

​

I offer a free 15-minute chat first before you decide if you would like to work with me.

​

​Please, do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

‘Thank you again Alison, your sessions have definitely helped me make sense of everything and now I feel able to move forward without any guilt .’
