James Johnson Counselling
I am a clinical counsellor and mindfulness therapist based in Basingstoke and Reading, who helps individuals, families and couples move out of life and relationship struggles. You are probably tired and fed up with struggling to make your life and relationships work. Maybe you cling to beliefs and behaviours that hurt you, but you don't know how to change.

Maybe you don't understand what's happening to you. Maybe you've experienced too much and need help understanding what's happened, where you are and where you want to be. You long for a healthy life and a great relationship with yourself and others that doesn't cause you pain. Plenty of people think that life, relationship or marriage problems will just get better over time, or that they can fix things themselves.

Many push aside issues, withdraw or shut down, and avoid talking about the deeper problems, hoping things will improve. Your happiness and those around you are your top priorities, and you miss the fun and ease of living. You've considered counselling, maybe for a while now, but haven't taken that first step yet.

I am a clinical counsellor and mindfulness therapist based in Basingstoke and Reading, who helps individuals, families and couples move out of life and relationship struggles.
For years, I felt uncomfortable in my own skin and was a people pleaser, trying to please everyone else and ending up pleasing no one, least of all me.
I stuffed a lot of what I wanted and needed down, scared to show how I really felt and thought.
As a result I was stressed, unhappy and I just didn't really know how to be in relationships.
Person-centred therapy is a holistic, experiential and relational way of working with individuals and couples.
From a Person-centred counselling perspective, a life-well lived is founded on a person's awareness of how they live their life and how they maintain their relationships.
Mindfulness builds on this theory by practically and compassionately teaching us that the greatest gift we can give ourselves and others is to be fully present to our experience.
Person-centred therapy supports you in raising your awareness about how you are living your life, who you are in relationship with others and what choices you are making.
Talking to friends and family can help, but sometimes their advice is insufficient, or we are too embarrassed or ashamed to tell them what is bothering us, or we just don't have an appropriate person to turn to.
When you come to see a therapist he or she only wants to be there for you, listen to and support you as you make sense of where you are, who you are and where you are going.
In my experience, seeing a therapist can literally be life changing.
Having someone really listen and encourage you to be curious about your experience can help untangle the beliefs and past issues that hold you back.
I have worked with many single people just like you and helped them discover what's stopping them from finding a long-term love relationship.
I will look to work with you to understand what has been working, so that you may build on this and what you bring from your past relationships that maybe getting in the way of relating in healthy and intimate ways.
Through individual counselling you can make positive changes to your life and in your relationships.
Contact me on 01256 781833 / 07876 211377 or visit my contact page and I will call you back for a FREE confidential 20-minute consultation.
Many couples get stuck in their struggles and just can't work out their differences on their own.
Such differences are not the issue, the real issue is how you're dealing with your differences.
Relationship issues that go on unresolved will eventually lead to relationship breakdown.
In the event of relationship breakdown it will be a lot harder to work through issues that have been left to fester for a long time.
Coming for couples counselling is not a sign of weakness or failure.
It's a sign that you care enough about your relationship to make positive changes that will sustain you both and help you thrive not only together, but in your daily life.
