Change is inevitable. Sometimes change is easy to manage and a solution can be quickly found. Other times, finding a way forwards is not so obvious. Often, there are reasons which make navigating change extremely difficult - belief systems and ways of behaving which we might be unaware of and which keep us stuck. Reaching out for help can feel very overwhelming, leaving us feeling scared or ashamed. Or simply lost.
Social workers and counsellors can help you find your way - they play a crucial role in facilitating lasting therapeutic change. More than just listeners, they are trained and highly skilled professionals who help you to cope with the big emotions that come with change. They can guide you to explore your psyche, to recognize your behavioral patterns and to discover new insights about yourself.
Using various therapeutic approaches, they assist you to understand your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, forging a pathway to meaningful change. The relationship you build with your therapist is based on trust, empathy and understanding which is essential in effective therapy.
At Thoughtful Connections, you will connect with a qualified, experienced, grounded and therapeutic social worker from a multicultural background, whose life experience has taught her insight into the complexity of the human condition.
Frederica is a practitioner who values respect, diversity and inclusion - during sessions, you will experience a trusting, person-centred safe space where you can explore your worries and concerns and find your way to clarity - and navigate your way through change, safely.
Thoughtful Connections delivers therapeutic counselling, social work and professional supervision within the human services sector, and psychoeducational workshops. The service also facilitates therapeutic groups for adults, families, adolescents and children.
