Louise Bryan Counselling
Counselling with care
A qualified and experienced psychodynamic counsellor working at the heart of Cheltenham, Gloucestershire.
Welcome to Louise Bryan Counselling
People come for counselling for varied reasons. You may have experienced a difficult event or want to talk about past relationships. You might be clear about what you would like to work on, or you could feel overwhelmed by strong emotions and are unsure as to the cause. You might feel a bit stuck, or even uncomfortable in your own skin. Sometimes, things just seem too much to deal with on our own.
Whatever brings you, counselling can help by providing a safe, dependable, and confidential space to talk through anything that might be troubling you. I listen with care, compassion and curiosity, and together we would reflect upon your thoughts and feelings to help find new perspectives, meaning and understanding when it comes to you and your world. I would hope that through our counselling relationship, you would gain insight into how you relate with others, see how your past is informing your present and learn more about how you perceive and feel about yourself. This understanding should help you to make positive choices and to feel stronger in yourself going forwards.
Having benefitted from personal therapy whilst training, I believe that it is through knowing ourselves better that we gain greater self-compassion - something that can bring about fundamental change when it comes to our sense of self and quality of life.
