Helena Woodgate – Psychotherapy in Walton-on-Thames

Hi, starting therapy can feel daunting and finding the right therapist is an important first step. You might come to therapy for all sorts of reason. So let me tell you a little bit about myself and how we could work together so you can make an informed decision that I'll be the right therapist for you. My name is Helena. I have many years experience of working existential, phenomenological, and psychoanalytic. And by combining different approaches and working with whatever feels right at the day will allow us to explore how you feel. Where are you in the world? Where do you see yourself? Where is other people? How does past experience affect you? No issues are ever too small, too big, too frightening or too intimate. We will work with whatever you bring to the session. I will be providing a safe space where I can help to support you. We can build on a relationship of trust, enabling you to wonder, what do you want? Do you want to make any changes or do you want to be able to live your life without being affected by the past? I have many years combined my private practice with my charitable work, working with clients who have experienced abuse, neglect and incarceration. leaving them feeling full of despair, anxiety and loneliness. But whatever you feel or you consider your issue, give me a call. I will offer you a 20 minutes free session where we can get to know each other a bit. And you can ask me any question you have regarding therapy. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you.

Hi. Do you keep on repeating the same behavior pattern? Do you apply for your dream jobs, or maybe go for a promotion, but never really get there, never get that break that you so wish for? Maybe you find that you often get in conflict with friends or family, or are you choosing a partner that always leaves you Or maybe you leave the partner just before it gets too serious. Do you often think you're going to do things, that trip, always dreaming, always thinking I'm going to do it and never really do? Something's stopping you. Maybe you want to become clearer on why all this is. What is it that drives you or hinders you? Give me a call. I'll provide a safe space where we can think and explore your dreams, your fear, your hidden desires, without you feeling judged or criticized. I look forward to working with you. Thank you.

Hi. Do you need to speak about the unspeakable? Have you suffered some form of abuse? Or maybe you still are. Maybe you're not ready to recognize it as such or use those words. Maybe you just need to talk about something that you're not really clear on. When love and desire is mixed up with secrecy and betrayal, it can leave us feeling very empty and lost. It's not unusual to maybe even blame ourselves for what happened. If you need a confidential space to speak, then give me a call. I provide a safe space where you can talk about things, wonder about them and explore your fear, your dreams and your hidden desires. And together we can become clearer and maybe be able to live with our memories or our life situation without being too affected by it. Whatever you bring to the session, I will be happy to work with. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you.
