Does anxiety or fear inhibition you from achieving your goals?

Are your relationships as satisfying and rich as you would like? Do you experience emotional and/or psychological pain or sadness? Are you experiencing PTSD symptoms? Do issues from the past block you from satisfaction in present moment functioning? Do you have difficulty managing anger? Do you have creative, performance or sports blocks? Do you procrastinate or block yourself from achieving success? Would you like to increase your self-understanding and your emotional wellbeing?

Gay’s counselling practice provides high quality and strictly confidential counseling services that address a wide range of concerns including relationship issues, self-esteem, depression, grief, anger, trauma, adolescent health, life adjustment concerns and anxiety arising out of everyday life. Gay’s vision is to support clients toward freedom from suffering through awareness, acceptance and integration of the self in present moment functioning.

You are the expert in your own life and Gay’s approach as a Gestalt counsellor is to assist you as an attuned therapeutic guide to work through issues and concerns that negatively impact your everyday functioning. She will support you in becoming aware of what triggers you, of how unhelpful beliefs from the past impact you in the present. You will be supported toward greater self-acceptance, self-compassion and greater empathy and understanding of others. Gay will assist you to become aware of your needs and how to communicate them in such a way that will enhance the likelihood of them being met. This work will open the door for change and potentially relief from unnecessary suffering.

As a Brainspotting practitioner Gay is able to use this cutting edge approach to gently and unobtrusively support you to identify, process and release unconscious sources of emotional/body suffering. This technique is a very personalized methodology that utilises your own brain and body to locate, process, and release experiences and symptoms that are typically out of reach of the conscious mind. This is achieved without necessarily having to resort to revisiting past traumatic events through storytelling. Brainspotting can help you to process pain, trauma, sadness, and life challenging issues and poor self-belief. It is also an excellent approach that helps alleviate creative blocks, it can resolve procrastination as well as sports, public speaking performance issues.

Gestalt therapy combined with Brainspotting functions as a neurobiological tool to support the clinical healing relationship. There is no replacement for a mature, nurturing therapeutic presence with the ability to engage another suffering human in a safe and trusting relationship where they feel heard, accepted, and understood.

Gay states, “Through my own work with my personal issues I have come to understand the power and freedom of self-acceptance, self-empathy, of awareness of how I make contact in my world and of my impact on others and I am passionate about supporting others toward their own growth and potential for freedom from emotional/psychological pain”.
