Instead, in a calm setting uninterrupted by the usual distractions of modern life, the emphasis is on confidentiality, support and understanding. I can help identify links between relationships and issues in your past, and your present-day ways of relating to others. </div><div><br /></div><div>Awareness of these connections offers you the freedom to choose whether and how to change old patterns of behaviour.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:180%;"><strong>How can counselling help?</strong></span><br /><br />People come to counselling for a variety of reasons: with relationship difficulties, with anxiety or depression, after loss or bereavement, or through an undefined sense of unhappiness with life and a wish to change. I listen non-judgementally to any issues you want to discuss and together we think about how you deal with life. Counselling can alleviate anxiety, help come to terms with trauma, accept the past, and help you to move on to live life in a different way.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:180%;"><strong>How long does counselling take?</strong></span><br /><br />Each session lasts 50 minutes and we meet regularly on a weekly basis. We decide together the number of sessions that are suitable for you. Sometimes a few sessions are enough to provide support through a difficult period. If you are looking for more substantial change, more sessions may be appropriate.<br /><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:180%;">Price</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold; font-size:medium;"><br /></span></div><div>I currently charge £40 per session. This increases slightly every two years.</div><div><br /><span style="font-size:180%;"><strong>What is my background?</strong></span><br /><br />I completed the Master's in Psychodynamic Practice at Oxford University, and worked as a counsellor at an NHS centre in Oxford from 2001 till 2008. I have been counselling adults at The Andover Road Counselling Practice in Newbury since 2006. I abide by the UKCP and BACP codes of ethics.</div><div><br /></div><div>I can provide counselling in German if required.<br /><br />My qualifications are:<br /><ul><li><div align="left">BA (Hons)</div></li><br /><li><div align="left">Master's in Psychodynamic Practice</div></li><br /><li><div align="left">UKCP accredited</div></li><br /><li><div align="left">BACP member</div></li></ul><p><br /><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">Contact Details :</span></strong><br /><br />Caroline Naish<br />14 Porchester Road<br />Newbury<br />Berkshire<br />RG14 7QJ</p><p align="left">Answerphone: 07773 872919<br />Please leave your name, contact details and a good time for me to phone you.</p><div align="left"><a href="mailto:caroline.naish@googlemail.com?subject=Counselling?Enquiry">Email me</a><br /><br />(This requires an email client.
