JACQUI MANNING - THE FRIENDLY PSYCHOLOGIST

You may have thought about talking to someone to help you over a bump in your life, but have stopped yourself because you thought your problem wasn't 'big' enough or the idea made you nervous, like there was something wrong with you, rather than the situation you were in.

Seeing a psychologist is a proactive way to take care of your emotional health. We will visit a doctor if we feel pain or we have the flu, so why do we find it harder when we feel emotional pain? Good emotional hygiene - or 'psychological immune boosting' as one of my clients puts it - is essential to deal with the pressures of modern life.

People come and see me for many reasons:

To resolve a problem in their life
To get clarity on a situation - e.g. breaking up a relationship or a career change
To learn strategies to improve their relationships, including life's essentials such as effective communication
To get relief from anxiety and stress that feels overwhelming
To break old patterns such as bad sleep cycles or quitting smoking
To increase their emotional, physical and mental health

We all deserve space to process our lives, past and present to help heal old wounds and energise us for a brighter future.
