Specialist Counsellor for Bereavement & Men
Counselling in Shenfield & Brentwood
Supporting professionals experiencing burnout, bereavement, emotional numbness, and quiet overwhelm.
On the surface, everything seems fine.
You’re capable, dependable, the one others rely on. You keep things moving: for your team, your family, your business. But under the surface, something’s shifted.
You feel flat. Disconnected. Like you’re holding back a tide of emotion you don’t fully understand.
You might describe it as burnout, emotional numbness, stress, or grief — or you might not have the words for it yet.
If you’ve started to wonder how much longer you can carry on like this, you’re not alone.
Why Choose Therapy in Shenfield (CM15)?
Private counselling for when it’s getting harder to hold it all in
Even when life looks calm from the outside, it can feel unbearably heavy on the inside.
Maybe you’re used to staying strong for others — keeping things in, hiding the cracks, keeping control. But now something’s shifting. The pressure is building.
Therapy offers a confidential space in Shenfield, Brentwood, Essex, where you can pause, breathe, and be met just as you are — without judgment, advice, or expectation.
Whether you’re navigating:
- Grief and bereavement
- Executive stress and professional burnout
- Feelings of emptiness or emotional numbness
- Relationship issues and emotional disconnection
- Or a general sense that you’re not quite yourself…
Counselling can help you make sense of what you’re carrying and gently reconnect with what matters.
“When a person realizes he has been deeply heard, his eyes moisten. I think in some real sense he is weeping for joy. It is as though he were saying, Thank God, somebody heard me. Someone knows what it’s like to be me.”
Carl Rogers, founder of Person-Centred Therapy
