How we can help
Life can be challenging at times. Recognising that we may need some support is, in our view, a sign of strength and courage. You might be feeling confused, uncertain, or lost about yourself or your life. Therapy offers a safe and non-judgemental space to explore your thoughts and feelings freely and without conditions.
Perhaps you’re feeling under pressure, anxious, or simply low. Life-changing events or challenging transitions can bring up a range of emotions. You may want to explore your relationships, reflect on your identity, or consider cultural concerns. Taking time to understand your thoughts and feelings can help bring clarity. We work with individuals and groups who may be feeling unhappy, unsettled, or dissatisfied with life.
Your Shoes aims to help you find a sense of calm by encouraging you to open up and talk with our trained therapists, who are here to truly listen. Therapy can support you in making positive changes in your life, helping you come to terms with your challenges and, where possible, find a way forward. It can also increase your self-awareness, enabling you to make new choices about how you live your life—choices that can lead to greater happiness and a deeper sense of contentment.
Your Shoes can also support you in improving your relationships with others. Relationship therapy is a form of counselling that helps both couples and individuals enhance communication and build stronger emotional connections. It addresses issues such as conflict, trust, and unhelpful patterns of behaviour, with the aim of fostering healthier, more fulfilling interactions.
