My name is Marie and I offer One to one Counselling for – Adult trauma, Addiction, Anxiety, Depression, Life transition and Stress. I currently have a range of availability, working in the Staffordshire Moorlands, having a counselling room in Leek or I offer virtual and telephone sessions. Please do get in touch with me, I will happily try to answer any questions.
How to explain what counselling is…….
If you are holding a cup of coffee and somebody accidentally bumps into you, you will most likely spill a drop or two, or depending on the bump impact a few spoonfuls or more. If there had been tea or something else in your cup, the result would have been the same.
Your emotions and feelings are like the coffee, because sometimes when life comes along and shakes you (which will happen to us all), whatever is inside your cup will spill out. Some times life can be easier until you get bumped….but then you may need somebody to talk too. This is where counselling can help and I would be honoured to be the person to listen.
Throughout my twenty five year career in Children’s Services, there are not many things I haven’t heard. Along with my own life experiences, bumps and “coffee spilling”, I am hear to listen to you if you would like to contact me.
I have been part of the local farming community where I live all of my life and understand the joys of this way of life and also the difficulties faced by many farmers. I know about the hard work and relentless pressure on many farmers in today’s current climate and how this can make people feel stressed, overworked and in some cases suicidal. Farming in many circumstances means working in business with close family members, as lovely as this can be, I am also very aware of the extra stress this can cause and in some instances result in difficult family rifts. Many of my clients are from the farming community as they know I understand their circumstances which means they don’t have to explain to me some things they may have to try and convey to another counsellor. I am happy to visit clients in a variety of places if that will make counselling more accessible for them, currently seeing one client in their milking parlour while they work and another client in their horse stables, while we stand and groom her horse.
