Samaria | Counsellor
Counselling Ilford
Hello, I am Samaria. Thank you for visiting my profile; I hope I can assist you and put your mind at ease.
I understand that our mental health can be challenging to speak about. However, I believe it is just as important as our physical health. I will provide you with a caring, safe and confidential space to explore your experiences without feeling judged. Talking is an explorative and helpful way to understand your thoughts and behaviours at greater depth and discover parts of yourself that you may not be aware of. I may challenge you gently and thoughtfully to enable you to become more self-aware.
I understand everyone is unique; therefore, one way of working does not always fit all. I believe you are the expert of yourself; with some reflection from myself, we will explore your thoughts and feelings that may be weighing you down mentally.
How therapy can help
Have you ever felt unheard, unseen or as thought you cannot change your thought patterns? In my experience with working with many diverse client groups, I have seen therapy improve and have an positive impact on these areas.
Therapy can help you in many ways; it can help you understand your emotions, develop coping mechanisms for stress, depression and anxiety, improve your communication skills and build stronger relationships with others. Therapy can also help you work through past traumas/experiences that may impact your current mental health. I will support you in identifying any challenges you may be facing to help you gain clarity on your journey in life.
I am passionate about creating change that allows you to find your voice and becoming the best version of yourself, to which is a journey that requires time, effort, and patience. Through identifying goals; I would hope we can move closer to a version of yourself that you are more in-tune and content.
I have various experiences working with adults and teens within both private practice and a school setting. I have also worked within mental health with adults; including Mind Talking Therapies, before qualifying as a counsellor for 17 years, giving me a wide understanding of the NHS mental health system and processes.
I know the process of even finding a therapist can be overwhelming, and you have proabably spent hours scrolling through profiles and pictures via Google; before gettingto this point. So please take a moment and recognise the massive steps that you have taken.
If you would like to know more or book an appointment, please send me a message.
