General Anxiety and Panic

Anxiety and Panic

Do you find yourself worrying excessively and uncontrollably about relationships, family, finances, work or illness? Are you constantly asking yourself “what if” questions which only highlight the possibility that negative or harmful events may occur? Do you feel exhausted, overwhelmed, helpless and hopeless?  If so, you may be experiencing generalised anxiety disorder (GAD). We can help you.

Bereavement and Loss

Have you been affected by the death of someone close to you through illness, accident or suicide? Are you experiencing the loss of a relationship through separation or divorce? Is your loss due to other life changes like chronic illness, miscarriage, financial stability, loss of safety after trauma such as childhood sexual abuse or rape? Are you finding it difficult to cope,  trouble keeping normal routine, sleeping and are you feeling sad, numb, lonely, anxious? You do not have to walk this path alone. We will journey with you.

Couples & Relationships

Do you feel like all you do at present is argue with the one you love the most? Maybe you are no longer even arguing, the silence is deafening, and you feel your relationship slipping away from you? Are you looking across the table at someone who now feels like a stranger to you or are you constantly trying to prevent violent outbursts, rage and chaos in your home? Couples don’t always agree and for the most part this is normal. It is how these challenges are navigated which can make the difference between a relationship which survives and thrives and another which stagnates and dies.

Eating Disorders

Do you spend a lot of time trying to “control” your food, weight, body image and yet it feels like “it” is controlling you?  How difficult can it be to “just eat”, or on the other hand “just not eat”?!It can feel impossible either way.  Whether you restrict what you eat, binge eat, purge, use laxatives, or over exercise, these are symptoms of an unhealthy relationship with food and body image.  This can leave you feeling overwhelmed, ashamed, useless, guilty, depressed and anxious…to name but a few! Rachel can help you rebuild a healthy relationship with food and body image.
