A safe space to pause, reflect and find your way forward
Life can feel overwhelming at times - especially when you're carrying grief, struggling with change or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you.
At Iremia Counselling, I offer a calm, supporting space where you can slow down, be heard and begin to make sense of what you're experiencing. You don't need to have the right words or a clear plan - just willingness to take one gentle step at a time.
I work with adults navigating emotional overwhelm, grief, addiction and major life transitions, supporting you to reconnect with yourself and move forward with greater clarity and steadiness.
You don't have to do this alone
A counselling space centred on you
Counselling is not about "fixing" you or pushing you to change before you're ready. It's about creating a relationship where you feel safe enough to explore what's really going on - at your pace. My approach is:
-
compassionate and non-judgmental
-
grounded and trauma-informed
-
respectful of your lived experience
Whether you're feeling lost, exhausted, disconnected or quietly holding a lot inside, this is a space where your experience matters.
How can I support you
People come to counselling for many reasons. You might recognise yourself in one or more of these:
-
feeling emotionally overwhelmed or stuck
-
struggling with substance use or unwanted patterns
-
navigating grief, loss or a significant change
-
feeling disconnected from yourself or others
-
wanting support, clarity or steadiness during a difficult time
Areas of support
While my work is grounded in general counselling, I have particular experience supporting people with:
Support for those questioning their relationship with substances, seeking change or working towards sustained recovery - in a respectful, non-shaming way.
Compassionate counselling for those grieving the loss of a beloved companion animal, acknowledging the depth and legitimacy of this bond.
Taking the next step
Reaching out for counselling can feel daunting, especially if you've been carrying things on your own for a long time. You're welcome to ask questions, take your time and move forward in a way that feels right for you.
If you're wondering whether counselling could help, I invite you to get in touch.
