Monica Mendes
MBACP Reg. Therapeutic Counsellor and Life Coach
I am a dedicated therapeutic Counsellor and Life Coach, with a special interest in Mindfulness and Psycho-Spiritual Support. I believe in therapy as a collaborative journey. In our work together, you will have my full support in navigating through your emotions and experiences. This process is integral to fostering a healthier relationship with your reality and, most importantly, with yourself.
My approach is rooted in a humanistic, relational understanding of therapy. I blend psycho-dynamic and psycho-spiritual theories together with solution-focused and mindfulness techniques, to tailor my support to your unique needs. My integrative training enables me to offer holistic therapeutic support, recognising the interconnectedness of who you are, life experiences, and interpersonal relationships. By acknowledging this interconnection, we gain valuable insights to better understand your authentic self, facilitating positive changes in your life.
Whether you're seeking short-term assistance or a more extended journey, my approach is flexible and adapts to your individual needs. Together, we'll embark on a transformative process to enhance your well-being and empower positive changes.
Therapeutic Counselling and Life Coaching
Life is a journey filled with unique challenges, experiences, and relationships, and the reasons individuals seek counselling and life coaching are as diverse as the human experience itself. I provide a safe haven for those facing repeated difficulties, distressing life experiences, and challenging relationships.
People turn to counselling and life coaching as a way to better understand themselves, fostering healthier ways to live their day-to-day. I aim to facilitate a space for greater emotional well-being and positive life transformations.
Therapeutic Counselling support is founded on a reparative and nurturing relationship working towards overcoming past and present distress.
Life Coaching has a developmental personal focus, concentrating on the present, to move you closer to your desired goals.
Therapeutic Counselling
Counselling offers an impartial and supportive space to help you explore your thoughts and emotions. Supportive information is offered with no judgment so that you can talk about challenges, uncover any root causes of your distress and identify unhelpful ways of thinking. Ultimately counselling is about being yourself and honestly exploring your experiences and feelings, with someone who offers you compassion and understanding
Life Coaching
Coaching is a supportive conversation that aims to create positive change. This is a process that looks at your present patterns, beliefs, and relationship dynamics to better understand how these may be holding you back in life. Ultimately, coaching is about self-empowerment through self-awareness, self-management and increased self-efficacy.
