Holistic Counselling

How often do you feel someone is actually giving you their full attention, that they're genuinely hearing you and really getting what you are saying? For many of us in this busy world, that's a rare occurrence. A Holistic Counsellor uses empathic, person-centred skills to truly listen to you on all levels, to help you learn more about yourself, how you fit into your life and how to successfully meet its very real challenges.

At Daybreaks we understand that pregnancy and parenthood can bring great joy into your life and can also raise particular challenges. Holistic Counselling can assist with issues such as anxiety, fears, relationship difficulties, insecurities, overwhelm, grief, loss, isolation, depression, addictions and anger. You may not even have identified a specific issue but simply need someone to talk to in private. Daybreaks offers you the opportunity to do just that in a caring and non-judgmental environment.

The Journey

A simple yet powerful guided visualisation process which can help you explore and clear emotional issues which hold you back, such as:

  • Unconscious fears which may contribute to problems in conceiving
  • High anxiety around childbirth
  • Confusion re your personal power to make choices in childbirth
  • Unresolved feelings about how the birth went
  • Relationship challenges arising during pregnancy / parenthood
  • Feeling despondent, lonely, isolated
  • Fears of not coping or not being a good-enough parent

The Transformation Game

A non-competitive board game for two to four players, this is a very useful tool during major life transitions such as pregnancy and becoming a parent. A unique opportunity for pregnant women and new parents to explore together issues around pregnancy, birth, parenthood and relationships in a caring, confidential environment with support and guidance from a qualified facilitator.
