Counselling with Pam has really helped. Thank you so much, I feel better and different and able to manage my life, my anxiety is so much better
Update for the Coronavirus Disruptions
The unfolding coronavirus pandemic has had a huge effect on the everyday life of all of us and maybe you are feeling anxious and worrying about every aspect of your life and what the future will hold for you and your family.
I am mindful that many people will want and need therapy but are worried about the cost at a time when possibly your income has been affected by the lockdown.
For this reason I am willing to offer discounted online or telephone therapy sessions to new clients. The level of discount and how many sessions it would last for, will be tailored to you, and we can discuss this before therapy begins.
Let me introduce myself, my name is Pam Tibbles, I am a counsellor and therapist based in Freemantle, Shirley, Southampton S015, and have over 12 years counselling experience working with adults. I recently moved my practice from Totton, New Forest.
Qualifications

What will you achieve from coming to counselling and receiving therapy?
Counselling is a talking therapy that gives you the opportunity to talk about your past and current problems, exploring your thoughts and feelings in a safe, comfortable environment free from judgements and preconceptions.

Some of my Areas of Therapy Specialism
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
A therapy that helps you manage problems by enabling you to recognise how your thoughts can affect your feelings and behaviour.
Person Centred Therapy
We work together to understand your experience from your perspective. We will discover your natural self healing process where you decide what you want in your life, trusting your own judgement and living your life in line with your own values, rather than those of others.
Transactional Analysis Therapy
Through therapy we will work together to discover your own problem solving behaviours, whilst helping you to develop skills and tools for finding solutions that work for you.
Management of Depression and Anxiety
During therapy we will spend time uncovering your anxious and depressive thoughts and feelings you experience. You will learn to acknowledge, accept and challenge them so that you can understand the likelihood and reality of these deep rooted thoughts and fears and develop strategies to feel more in control.

I’d like to thank Pam for all her help and understanding of me over the last 7 months. Talking to Pam has really helped me when I was feeling very low and confused after a bereavement and now feel and see that there is a light at the end of the tunnel and I’ve come out feeling really good and happy again. Pam is the best counsellor I’ve ever had and I would really recommend her.

I felt comfortable with Pam as she was in tune with me, I felt heard throughout the counselling talking about my anxiety and stressful life, I felt valued and understood
