Counselling and Psychotherapy in Petersfield, Hampshire

Hello and welcome to my website. I am Pip Sweeney, a psychotherapist with a counselling and psychotherapy practice in Petersfield.

There are many reasons why people might seek the help of a therapist. If you are in a particular crisis; or if you feel dissatisfied with the way you experience your life, counselling and psychotherapy can help. My work can support clients in a crisis or help them to make changes in their lives.

One of the greatest assets we have is the ability to communicate: to talk, listen and be heard. When we feel safe to talk we can begin to find ways to build a more satisfying life and develop our potential.

My work is humanistic, which means that I am interested in the client as a whole: who they are, what has shaped them and how they are in the world. Working in this way can involve looking at wounds of the past; finding strategies and ways to work with current dilemmas; and aiding growth of who we want to become.

I believe that everyone has in them the resources that are needed to change and that with a skilled person listening, questioning and supporting a client can use these resources to build a more satisfying life. The quality and form of the relationship between me as a therapist and my clients is important and informs the way that I work with each individual. I continually strive to find the most appropriate and effective method to work with each person.

I work with individuals on a basis which suits them and the issue that they want to work on. Shorter term work may be appropriate for someone who wants to explore a specific issue or problem; while longer-term, more in-depth work will suit those who have a general feeling of dissatisfaction with their life or who have many issues they want to look at.

I help clients who experience difficulties such as:

Relationships and Intimacy

Parenting

Stress

Panic Attacks

Anxiety

Bereavement, Grief and Loss

Anger and Conflict

Depression

Life Changes and Transitions

My work is based on over 2,000 hours of personal development and clinical training. My eight years working in the City for an investment bank and my recent experience of becoming a mother of two children both informs and enriches my work.

My practice is located in central Petersfield and is within easy reach of Winchester, Alton, Haslemere and Midhurst.
