Person-centred counselling in Norwich & online

Counselling for Mums & Burnout, Norwich

Motherhood, Mental Load & Burnout

Becoming a mother — or simply carrying the weight of family life — can leave little space for you.

You may feel as though you are constantly giving to others whilst quietly running on empty yourself. Perhaps you are juggling the pressures of work, parenting, relationships and everyday life whilst trying to hold everything together.

It can look like:

  • Feeling overwhelmed or emotionally exhausted
  • Snapping more easily or feeling less like yourself
  • Struggling to switch off or truly rest
  • Feeling guilty when prioritising yourself
  • Carrying the invisible mental load of family life
  • Feeling lost underneath the roles and responsibilities you hold

Therapy can offer space to pause, breathe, untangle what feels overwhelming and begin reconnecting with yourself again.

How person-centred counselling can help

Person-centred counselling gives you a warm, confidential and non-judgemental space to talk, at your own pace. There is no pressure to have the right words or to know exactly what is wrong. Together we can make sense of what you are carrying and what you need, so that change can begin to come from you.

Sessions are available in person at my private, peaceful counselling room in Barford, just outside Norwich, or online by secure video call.

Common questions

Sessions are 50 minutes long. This is the standard therapeutic hour and gives us enough time for meaningful work.

This varies greatly from person to person. Some people find short-term is what they need, while others prefer longer-term support. We will continue to review our work together. Planned endings are always preferable but of course you can finish counselling whenever you wish

As the therapist I will maintain confidentiality in accordance with an ethical framework for good practice at all times.

​Confidentiality can only be broken when there is evidence that the client may:

  1. Threaten harm to yourself or to another person.
  1. If I the therapist believe a child or protected adult is at risk of harm or abuse.
  1. If the courts instruct the therapist to give information.
  1. If you, the client share information about a proposed act of terrorism or other illegal act

Yes, I offer both in-person and online sessions via secure video call.
