Counselling and Psychotherapy in Bournemouth, Poole and Wimborne
Welcome to my WebHealer page.
My name is Sarah Grundy and I offer psychotherapy and counselling in Wimborne, Poole and Bournemouth.
I am a counsellor with 24 years experience, having worked both privately and in the NHS as a Primary Care counsellor. In addition to my original counselling Diploma, I have recently completed four years advanced study in psychotherapy at Masters level and am a Trainee Transactional Analyst working towards certification (CTA). I have regular clinical supervision and attend CPD workshops and seminars to update and refresh my counselling and psychotherapy skills.
As a counsellor, I work with adults of all ages, and in particular with problems such as anxiety and depression. Anxiety and depression are your brain's way of coping with whatever is unresolved and troubling you.
I also work with difficulty in relationships, relationship breakdown and divorce; low self esteem, panic, bereavement, trauma, childhood abuse and work stress. I have specialist training in working with relationship and couples. Counselling can help you to process and therefore resolve these issues, enabling you to move forward.
In my practice as a counsellor, I use a range of theoretical and practical approaches, including NLP, CBT and EMDR. In my practice as a psychotherapist, I am also influenced by theories that consider early development, the impact of relationships and our unconscious processes. I believe that there is a strong connection between physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual health.
- However trivial you may think your problem is, it’s still valid. Asking for help sooner gives you the best chance of recovering and moving on.
- For couples, if your relationship matters to you both, it's worth taking the time to explore how it might work for both of you. Our work together can help you to explore the issues between you, identify unhelpful patterns and offer you a fresh perspective.
- Counselling is not advice giving or telling you what to do. My role as a counsellor is to facilitate and empower you in working out for yourself a solution to your issues.
- I will tailor my approach to your specific needs so that you can find a sense of balance in your life.
I offer both short term and long term therapy, depending upon the nature of your difficulty, in Wimborne, Poole and Bournemouth.
