About Bob Thompson Counselling

My Philosophy

I believe that everyone has the right to feel comfortable in their own skin. My aim is to provide a safe, confidential, non-judgemental space, and to provide personalised support to help you find your solutions to your issues. A counselling service dedicated to helping you become your best self. 

My Approach

  

Based in East Durham and working with both children and adults, I'm here to help you work through the issues and challenges that you face. I can support through sessions face to face, online video calls, or by telephone. I'll support you on your path to change, self-acceptance and personal growth. Using integrative and creative methods and tools, the aim to help you to return to you.

Counselling Children & Young People

Counselling children and young people can bring its own set of challenges. Differing priorities and pressures, along with varying levels of emotional understanding, children and young people can require a special set of counselling skills. 

Many adults that attend counselling for the first time, attend due to issues based in childhood or adolescence. The opportunity to deal with or process the issue(s) in childhood can increase the resilience and emotional wellbeing into adulthood.

Continuous Personal Development

I believe that its important to keep up to date with skills and techniques, whether that be grounding techniques, working with children, breathing techniques, or creative tools. I continually strive to provide the best support I can.

Common Issues

Anxietydepressiontraumagrief & loss

Anxiety

Counselling can help...

when the normal feelings of worry and fear become a daily event and relaxation becomes difficult or impossible. We provide a supportive and non-judgmental environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, gain insights into your behaviour, and develop strategies to deal with and  manage your anxiety.

Depression

Counselling can help...

to process feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and despair. Symptoms can also include physical sensations, unexplained aches and pains.  Many triggers can cause depression and this can cause us to isolate ourselves, and to bottle up our feelings, because we think they don't matter. They do. Counselling can help empty that bottle by providing a supportive and non-judgmental environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, and develop strategies to manage your depression.

Trauma

Counselling can help...

because traumatic events can have a debilitating affect on present and future quality of life. Trauma can take many forms, physical, sexual, emotional, racial, intergenerational, neglect, to name just a few. Counselling can to help you heal from the psychological impact of trauma, including, anxiety, depression and self worth.

Grief & Loss

Counselling can help...

because grief is not only caused by bereavement. It can be the loss of a relationship, the loss of a job or career. Loss of the ability to participate in a much loved pastime or sport. 

Where the grief is caused by bereavement, accepting the ebb and flow of emotions can be difficult. And the range of emotions can take some by surprise. Taking the time to process the emotions can allow us to understand why we have these feelings and thoughts. It supports the acceptance of the loss and maintaining a healthy bond with the person lost as your life moves forward.
