Libby offers a warm and supportive space where clients can take the time to think, understand or just be. Together establishing what clients need from counselling and uniquely forming a supportive relationship.
As a trained Integrative Psychotherapist, she draws from several modalities. Appreciating the common parts and different names across the modalities. She believes that we are meaning-seeking beings who create narratives to understand all that we experience. This forms our identity, but also can be held harshly and in a way that doesn’t serve us.
Examining and challenging the narrative can be helpful. Often, we are our worst critics; so, by exploring the beliefs and stories, we can bring awareness to our unmet needs, conflicts and desires. When we feel powerless or stuck, it can be helpful to explore patterns of thinking and behaviour.
Painful and traumatic experiences can be hard to bear and move on from. It can require the safety and support of the therapeutic relationship to explore the sources of emotional pain and to heal.
The uncertainty of life can generate huge anxiety. Living with and accepting uncertainty can be hard. Exploring freedom, choice and responsibility in therapy can feel helpful, to provide a stronger and more grounded stance in our lives.
A common area of distress is relationships; the grief, heartache and conflict that can arise. Libby works to uncover the patterns of relating that have formed since childhood and the messages that were received about safe and loving relationships. Empathically examining the dynamics, without searching for blame, so that relationships can be held with choice and boundaries.
Libby Burrough’s offers a space where you can bring your whole self without judgement. Together, you can explore what feels painful, confusing, or unresolved, as well as what matters most to you, your values, hopes, and capacity for change. Therapy can be a space to reflect, to re-orient, and to begin the work of becoming more fully yourself.
