About CALM...

You know you can’t change your past…but did you know that by changing the way that you think about it, you can change how it colours your future?

My name is Louise and I am a Qualified Counsellor working in Sheffield, South Yorkshire. I am pleased to provide a safe and confidential service for anyone feeling that they would benefit from counselling.

Counselling can help you to find your emotional balance, it can heal and help you enjoy the present time. Counselling helps you to find a more productive way of moving toward your future.

Much like an artist cleaning his brushes so that each new colour will be true, so counselling can help you deal with issues (your baggage) in order that they don’t taint new experiences and relationships.

Counselling can help you through difficult times by giving you space to talk things through without judgement

 

How I work:

I work from a Person Centred core, integrating other models as is appropriate to each individual client. The Person Centred philosophy is that you, the client, know what hurts. You are the expert on you…I endeavour to model my work with this philosophy in mind and therefore work with the issues that you, as the client, bring.

The aim is always to acknowledge your individuality and uniqueness and tailor the practice to effectively support you during your journey. Facilitating the changes you may make in order to redirect your emotional life into a more productive and fulfilling way of being.

Man looking at unfinished puzzle on floorCounselling is not just about listening and talking; it provides the opportunity to challenge negative thinking and gives space to develop the strategies that enable change. If you feel stuck in the same cycle of emotions and behaviours and feel you can’t move forward, then perhaps counselling is for you.

Following an initial assessment we will agree upon a working contract following the ethical framework of the BACP. You will be offered six initial counselling sessions with a review and flexibility for continued work. My rates are very competitive.

 

Employer Referrals:

If you are currently off work or are struggling to continue to work you can ask your HR to refer you to me as you may have the right to an independent counsellor via their EAP provider. This could mean that you get the support to keep you at work or help you to return to work at no cost to you whatsoever.

Also… did you know you may be covered by your personal insurance for counselling? For example, if you have been in an accident you should be able to claim for emotional support.

 

Counselling sessions are conducted in my purpose-built home office in Grenoside, in north Sheffield. Client discretion and confidentiality are maintained at all times.
