Hopeman Counselling Psychotherapy Ranelagh

Hope is the thing with feathers-
That perches in the soul-
And sings the tune without the words-
And never stops- at all- (Emily Dickinson)

Hopeman provides a fully qualified and experienced counselling- and psychotherapy service in Ranelagh.

Are you feeling depressed or anxious? Have you experienced the loss of a loved one or are you facing difficulties in your workplace? Are you in a stressful relationship or has life become a struggle and you don’t quite know why? No matter what is causing your distress, counselling and psychotherapy provide very effective help and support!

Although help and support is now only a phone call away, it still may feel difficult to pick up the phone and make that call. The reason could be that you fear that you might be seen as weak and unable to cope. You may also fear being labelled with mental illness or that you don’t qualify for counselling because your issues are too trivial. Maybe you think that counselling cannot fix your problems and that you don’t deserve help. It could also “just” be the fact that you have never spoken about what you really feel or think to anyone and that this way of relating is frightening to you.

There could be many other reasons and it is quite normal for you to feel apprehensive, BUT these anxieties rarely reflect the truth! Counselling is not a sign of failure; it is a sign that you have acknowledged the problem and have taken responsibility to change things for the better. If you are having doubts, fears or questions about counselling please read the FAQ section on this website or get in contact.

There is hope and help is just a phone call away….

Counselling & Psychotherapy approaches…

Person Centered Counselling

Person centered psychotherapy is a non-directive, empathic approach that empowers and motivates the client in the therapeutic process. The therapy is based on Carl Rogers’s belief that every human being strives for and has the capacity to fulfill his or her own potential. Person centered therapy, also known as Rogerian therapy, has had a tremendous impact on the field of psychotherapy and many other disciplines.

Psychodynamic Psychotherapy

In psychodynamic therapy, therapists help people review emotions, thoughts, early-life experiences, and beliefs to gain insight into their lives and their present-day problems and to evaluate the patterns they have developed over time. Recognizing recurring patterns helps people see the ways in which they avoid distress or develop defense mechanisms as a method of coping so that they can take steps to change those patterns.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a short-term, problem-focused form of behavioral treatment that helps people see the relationship between beliefs, thoughts and feelings, and subsequent behavior patterns and actions. Through CBT, people learn that their perceptions directly influence their responses to specific situations. In other words, a person’s thought process informs his or her behaviors and actions.
