Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy in Bexleyheath, Sidcup, Dartford and Online
Compassionate care for every age and stage
Welcome to Lifespan Therapeutic Counselling
You're not broken. You're human.
Life can be beautifully complex and sometimes overwhelming.
Whether you're a child taking your first steps in the world, a teen navigating a sea of emotions, an adult juggling life's demands, or someone in your golden years reflecting on life's journey - we all have moments when we need a helping hand. Here's the silver lining: you have support available.
I'm Dawn, a BACP registered counsellor offering both in-person and online sessions. I'm here to walk beside you, whatever path you're on. Perhaps you're grappling with anxiety, mourning the loss of a loved one, or simply feeling out of sync with yourself. You might be a parent trying to understand your child's world, a young person searching for your place, an adult navigating career crossroads, or someone in your later years seeking new purpose. I understand the parallels between different life stages too - the isolation of a teenager unable to attend school can mirror the loneliness of an older person confined to their home.
How does it work?
These feelings? They're all part of the human experience. And together, we can work through them. I offer a safe, judgement-free space where you can be yourself, express your thoughts, and start your journey towards a new way of living. Whether you need short-term support or longer-term therapy, we'll find an approach that works for you.
Whether you're 7 or 75, your feelings matter. Let's talk about how we can help you move forward, one step at a time.
Adult Counselling
Life doesn't come with a manual, and sometimes we all need a little guidance. Whether you're navigating relationships, career stress, or personal growth, I'm here to help you find your footing and rediscover your way.
Counselling for Children and Young People
Growing up isn't always easy, and it's okay to need a little extra support along the way. I provide a safe, creative space for young minds to express themselves, work through challenges, and build resilience for the journey ahead.
Clinical Supervision
As a supervisor, I provide a confidential and supportive space for counsellors and trainees to reflect on their practice. This supervisory relationship aims to enhance your professional growth, ensure safe and ethical practice, and deepen your therapeutic skills.
The goal of our supervision sessions is to create a space where you can explore your potential, discover new perspectives, and find ways to work more effectively and resourcefully with your clients. Together, we'll focus on ensuring the best possible care for your clients while supporting your growth as a practitioner.
How Counselling & Psychotherapy Can Help You
I'm not here to "fix" you – you're not broken. Counselling is about walking alongside you, helping you understand yourself and discover your own path forward.
Our sessions offer a safe, non-judgemental space where you can be completely yourself. Whether you're grieving, feeling stuck, or just a bit lost, we'll work together to navigate your path.
As an integrative counsellor, I offer support tailored to your unique situation, drawing from a variety of therapeutic approaches. My experience includes working with general life challenges, as well as specialised areas such as bereavement and solution-focused therapy. Together, we'll find the best way to address your needs, sometimes exploring beyond traditional talking therapy when words alone aren't enough.
Remember, counselling isn't about me giving you all the answers. It's about unlocking your own strength and resilience. Whether you need short-term support or a longer journey, we'll go at your pace.
This is your story and I’m here to help you write the next chapter.
