Find Calm & Confidence - Counselling in Newbury, Berkshire
Welcome to John Dyson Counselling. As an experienced therapist helping clients in the Newbury and Thatcham area of Berkshire, I provide a safe and confidential space within my practice where individuals and young people can openly explore their experiences and emotions.
Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, navigating persistent low mood, or struggling with low self-esteem? Perhaps you're grappling with the lingering impact of difficult past experiences, or feel challenged by everyday life changes or relationship difficulties.
Through a combination of therapy and life coaching, my aim is to guide you towards a clear path of meaningful change and personal growth.
Supporting Your Mental Health Through Life’s Challenges
You don't have to face these struggles alone. Many people seek support when dealing with factors like:
Social anxiety that makes everyday interactions feel impossible
Low mood, or clinical anxiety and depression, clouding your perspective
Trauma and PTSD from past events still impacting today
Grief from bereavement feeling too heavy to carry
Relationship challenges or family difficulties causing pain and confusion
Life changes leaving you uncertain about the future
If you're experiencing any of these difficulties, professional counselling can provide the mental health support and tools you need to move forward.
