HILLWOOD
Hello!
Welcome
to
HILLWOOD Counselling and Psychotherapy
My name is Saara
At Hillwood, located in Widnes, Cheshire, UK, I offer a safe, reflective and supportive space
for you to explore your experiences, thoughts, feelings ...
as well as ways forward when you are feeling ... "stuck".
I offer counselling / psychotherapy and coaching, after talking with you about what's happening to you
and what you think might help.
We can meet in person at my dedicated therapy room or remotely, via Zoom.
about you
There are all sorts of reasons why people seek therapy.
We can feel overwhelmed by our life events - and very much on our own -
and this can feel really difficult.
And, because this is affecting us,
it can also have an impact on the way we relate to other people in our life -
family, friends, workmates ...
This might be what's happening for you.
about me
I have worked in mental health and psychological therapies for over 30 years, in both the NHS and private practice,
continually working as a counsellor / psychotherapist
since qualifying in 2003.
My work is underpinned by the BACP's Ethical Framework.
As an integrative psychotherapist,
I am able to draw on different approaches in therapy,
depending on what you bring to explore and
the journey you are embarking on.
Perhaps we can journey through this alongside each other.

Coaching
You might be feeling "stuck".
You might simply be saying to yourself,
"well, I've got to do SOMEthing,
but what and how ...?"
Coaching is not therapy.
It is a behavioural approach -
"forward-facing" (looking towards your future) -
and it involves identifying what it is you would like to be different,
what you want to work towards, what you experience is
getting in the way of you reaching this
and ways in which you can navigate a path to your goal.
If you would like to, we can navigate all of this together.
