Navigating challenging family dynamics or life transitions can be confusing and distressing, impacting your sense of self and well-being. Whether grappling with strained relationships, questioning your gender identity or sexuality or undergoing significant life changes like parenthood, family estrangement, or menopause, these experiences can leave you feeling lost and unsure of how to move forward. Seeking support during these times can offer clarity, validation, and guidance to help you navigate and thrive amidst uncertainty. Perhaps it’s time we should talk?
Hello. I am Helen Gilbert, your therapist, and we will get through this together. I’m a psychotherapist who works with people needing support to make sense of what’s going on and to find a way to breathe a little more easily. I don’t try to impose my own agenda or theory onto you and your situation. Therapy is different with every person. We create it together.
Therapy could help you understand how your past relationships, upbringing and way of thinking might affect you. Therapy can help to process what’s happening, find grounding from being overwhelmed, make sense of and clarify difficult feelings. We will work together to help you explore what’s happening, or has happened, and help you to find more freedom in your way of being in the world.
