I have really enjoyed working with Holly over the last few months. She made me feel so comfortable from our very first contact and she has helped me through a lot that I hadnt previously been able to deal with. She has given me lots of tools and advice for working on myself and my relationships and for that I am very grateful. More...

Relationship and Marriage Counselling

Holly has been an incredibly huge help during the worst year of my life. I used to think counselling was a bit silly but I have found it to be helpful, thought provoking and worthwhile. I would highly recommend Hollys services, she is kind, a great listener and explains your feelings/behaviour in such a helpful way. More...

Holly has been amazing, patient and very easy to talk to, I felt results from my first visit! I was at an extremely low point and unsure if anything would help… thankfully I was wrong and Holly helped me find inner strength and positive mental attitude to carry on my journey, I look forward to more sessions.

These sessions have been amazing. I was dubious at first as to whether it would work but I found myself changing without even realising what was happening. The space is so safe for you to completely relax and let go and I always leave our sessions feeling peaceful. The way that these sessions are carried out means I leave looking forward to the future rather than being depressed about the past. Would 100% recommend to anyone struggling to deal with past experiences, low self esteem, fears or phobias, low confidence or anxiety More...

I worked with holly around adapting my very negative mindset, since our sessions I view the world very differently and I no longer feel I am a victim to my circumstances, I am a lot happier and a lot more able to process my feelings. Holly is very good at listening and making you question the things you never asked yourself. I cannot thank her enough. More...

Therapist

Holly is a great listener and always lets me talk things out with no judgement. She makes me feel very calm and at ease.
Talking to someone about my anxiety has always made me feel nervous but Holly has made it feel very easy.

Counselling

Hollie came into my life at a point of absolute crisis. Her caring, person centred approach helped me to find my feet, get control back in my life, and to start build a future again.

We can’t thank Holly enough for the help she has given our son. She has been great with communication and flexibility, always providing detailed feedback at the end of the sessions. Holly has also given us as parents, help with how to support our son and make things easier for us all. I would absolutely recommend using this fantastic service, it’s been a really positive experience for us. Thank you Holly! More...

Q&As

My passion in life is about empowering others to achieve their full potential. I gain a huge amount of fulfilment in working with clients to take steps towards a happier and more productive future and enjoy the challenge of working with individuals from all different walks of life.

I was inspired to start my own business initial due to my own personal journey of personal growth. I saw first hand the impact of questioning my belief systems and breaking negative mindsets. I also was inspired to start working with children after my daughter faced her own trauma in terms of a life limiting medical diagnosis so educating myself in terms of working with children was first hand to support my daughter to my full potential then secondly to use those same principles in order to support others.

I am extremely passionate about what I do. To me this is more than just a career, I am not striving for financial success, as this is not my drive. I left a highly paid role in Project Management so that I could pursue my passion and make an impact. I believe we all have the ability to choose freedom, to make choices and to make steps towards achieving our goals and overcoming the barriers in our live. I feel you can spend years training, knowing the theory behind the practice, but unless you have walked this path personally and come out the other side that you are not in a position to fully understand and to assist and support to the highest level. I believe my personal background adds to my experience and qualifications and gives me the advantage in terms of being fully able to support others.

Services

Becoming a parent is one of the biggest life changes that we as individuals will experience; suddenly we have to shift from only looking after ourselves to considering another in all that we do. Does your child have additional needs that you are struggling to manage? Are you feeling out of control and battling with your child over behavioural problems? Are you finding it difficult to pursue your own goals now that you are a parent? Do you and your partner have different parenting styles and you are finding it challenging to compromise? Do you feel like you are pulled in two directions as to what to do next with your life? Are you wanting to become a better you, so that you are able to teach your child to be a better them?

No matter what the reasons, I aim to look at the current barriers you are facing and encourage you to improve and grow looking at new techniques and perspectives in order to promote change. We will work together to set goals and work towards whatever your vision of parenting might be.

'Are you being the parent you needed yourself as a child?'

Psychologist’s suggest that between the ages of 3 years and 11 years is an ‘imprint period’. This means that childhood experiences between these ages are likely to have an impact on who that child becomes, how they feel, behave and represent the world to themselves in later life. I have much first hand knowledge of the impacts experiences can have on a child. I aim to work with children who have had difficult experiences in life and try to help them better understand themselves in fun, new and creative ways. Once a child can understand themselves and why they feel the way they do it is much easier for them to learn to self-regulate and identify what they are feeling and why, to be aware of their 'triggers' and to learn helpful and simple techniques to manage unhelpful feelings and behaviours. I am very passionate about children, I believe the majority of all our issues stem from the belief systems we build during the early stages of our life. I aim to breakdown these beliefs and build up self-esteem in order to encourage fulfilment and self worth.

Being a teenager is tough! Life is full of expectations, exams, changing bodies, changing minds, and getting to grips with how you fit into this crazy world! Is your child being bullied at school? Is this having an impact on their self esteem? Are they suffering with 'stress' or 'anxiety' as a result of pending exams looming? I aim to work with teens to build up their self worth, to work with them using a life coaching framework in order to breakdown the false beliefs and empower them to take the steps they want to be taking. I will build sessions around your child's specific needs and the areas of life they would like support with.

"Pass truth on to the next generation, teach them early, what we learn too late"

I aim to work with clients to break down their current belief systems, to gain higher levels of self awareness. This could be presented in terms of stress, depression, anxiety, relationship breakdowns or addiction. Once we can fully understand why we do the things we do, how we react in certain circumstances, our mindset, our choices and our drives then it is a matter fo breaking down which of these behaviours are postive or negative. Once we can understand how our reactions have a negative impact we can look to change them. We cannot control all the things in life that happen 'to us', a breakdown of a marriage, divorce, death of a family member, diagnosis of a chronic or life limiting condition. However, we can control how we react. I work with clients to empower them in terms of them taking responsibility for their own lives, taking control of the areas in life they are are to influence and spending time understanding themselves to a new level.

We often become 'stuck' in life, sometimes for a short period, often for many years. We sometimes lose sight of what it is we need, who we are, what our values are and what our goals in life are.

My role is to guide and inspire you to achieve more of your personal and professional goals. Get in touch today and start taking control of your life. How many hours do you dedicate each week to physical improvements, the gym, hair appointments, beauty treatments? How much money do you spend each month on aesthetic improvements? New clothes, cosmetics, a new pair of shoes? Do you feel like it's time to start investing in yourself on a deeper level? If yes contact me and let's take the first step together.

"When your desire to change becomes greater than your desire to remain the same"
