Family Dynamics Counselling in Basingstoke

​​

Family relationships can be complicated, even in the closest families. You might feel torn between wanting connection and needing distance, or caught up in patterns that leave you feeling unheard, unsupported, or stuck.

​

Whether you are navigating a strained parent relationship, sibling issues, generational conflict, or blended family challenges, it can feel heavy to carry these feelings alone. You might find it affecting your self-esteem, your sense of belonging, or how you relate to others outside your family too.

​

Counselling can give you a space to talk through these complexities at your own pace. Together, we can explore the patterns and dynamics that are impacting you, and find ways to set healthier boundaries, process hurt, and move toward the kind of relationships you want.

How Family Issues Can Show Up  

This feeling can be hard to explain, but you might notice:

​

  • Feeling responsible for keeping the peace

  • Struggling to set or maintain healthy boundaries

  • Feeling stuck between loyalty to family and your own wellbeing

  • Guilt, anger, sadness, or confusion about family roles

  • Worry about becoming distant or disconnected

  • Carrying family patterns into friendships or romantic relationships

​

Family is never one-dimensional, and it is okay if your feelings are complex.

How Counselling Can Help

In our sessions, we will gently explore your experiences, the roles you have been placed in, and how you would like your relationships to feel moving forward.

You will find a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can process your story, build resilience, and begin to choose relationships that truly nourish you.

​

With my counselling in Basingstoke, I work with people from all backgrounds, including those from diverse family structures, cultures, and experiences. You are welcome here, just as you are.

Contact

I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to help us determine if I’m the right fit for your counselling journey. This is an opportunity for you to ask any questions and get a sense of how we might work together in a way that feels comfortable for you. Taking the first step can feel challenging, but I’m here to make it as approachable and reassuring as possible.
