Jane Dring (MBACP)

Talking about your feelings can evoke vulnerability, it can feel exposing and uncomfortable.  Until now, you may have pushed those feelings down, locked them away in a box or numbed them out. I can see why that may have felt the 'easier' option. 

​

But over time, these responses can become limiting and exhausting, making it harder to connect with yourself and others.  You don’t have to figure it out alone.

​

I offer a safe and confidential space where you can gently explore your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. Together, we can uncover what’s holding you back and find healthier ways to move forward.

​

A safe space

Deciding to start therapy is a big step. I understand it may feel daunting.

My priority is to create a calm, judgment-free space where you can speak openly, at a pace that feels right for you.

​

Life Challenges

Even when everything looks fine on the outside, life can feel overwhelming. You may find yourself:

​

• Avoiding difficult conversations, responsibilities, or emotions.

• Feeling dissatisfied with life, work, or relationships but unsure why

• Struggling with direction, feeling lost or disconnected

• Neglecting your own needs to please others

• Using work, substances, sex, or relationships as a way to escape. 

 

If this souds familiar, you're not alone. Many people experience these challenges, and therapy can help.

Benefits of Counselling

In therapy, we often look back to move forward—exploring your experiences, thoughts, and emotions to understand what’s shaping your current patterns.  I work with individuals experiencing:

​

• Anxiety – Persistent worry, overthinking, or a sense of dread

• Low self-esteem – Feeling “not good enough” or unworthy

• Neglecting personal needs – Struggling with boundaries or self-care

• Difficulty expressing emotions – Feeling unheard, misunderstood, or suppressed

• Anger & rage – Outbursts, frustration, or resentment

• Loss & grief – Adjusting after loss, big life changes, or past wounds

 

Counselling can help you recognise these patterns and develop healthier ways to navigate life. Let’s start the conversation—reach out today.
