Diane Taylor, The Counselling Room Diane Taylor, counsellor, life coach and hypnotherapist, registered member of the Accredited Nation

My name is Diane Taylor, I am a counsellor and hypnotherapist working in Southampton, Hampshire. I am a Registered Member of the Accredited National Counselling and National Hypnotherapy Society to give you peace of mind and confidence when seeking help. As a counsellor I will not advise or have the answers to your questions, but quite often you do. I will work with you to gain understanding of your difficulties and to identify ways to live your life more happily. When life hits a difficult phase or we are struggling to make sense of our day to day, to be able to share our thoughts and feelings, with a non-judgmental, objective person, can help facilitate the necessary changes in our lives to balance our emotions. By working together we will use an integrative approach, in a safe and confidential environment, offering flexible methods as a response to your needs such as psychodynamic work, person centered, CBT, hypnotherapy and mindfulness.
​
With the experience gained though working with a local bereavement charity and a leading university I have developed a strong interest in areas of anxiety, loss and emotional challenges.
​
My practice rooms in Bedford Place and Norfolk Road Southampton, are easily accessible by car and public transport from within Southampton and the surrounding areas, car parking nearby. I offer daytime and evening appointments and endeavour to be flexible around client's work and personal commitments. The services I offer are:
Counselling for individuals and couples
Hypnotherapy

Wednesday wise words.
Which one might you like to pay a little more attention to today?
We can only take joy from what we have and we do have a choice.

One to look out for!

Sometimes a step back delivers a whole new perspective. We see things we may have missed if too close up.

Life can be tough at times. Curved balls you didn’t expect. Events that were never in your plans. Blows dealt by others you didn’t see coming. Acceptance plays a key part in how you move forward. It’s still your life and your control lies in how you respond. Letting go is the best way to ensure you get to be both happy and healthy.

Where are you spending your Sunday? If you aren’t focussing on being present you can miss out on so much. Stay in the present and enjoy the moment- even if it’s small things.

Not easy to do if you are in the habit of looking at the negative. With practice we get more skilled - remind yourself you’ve been through worse and survive. In life, we can usually see something good that comes from the difficult things life throws at us.

Don’t wait to for a ‘perfect’ body to swim in the sea or enjoy the beautiful beach. Time is precious - once it’s gone it gone - so throw your head back and heart forward. Live your best beach life because nobody cares and you deserve fun and happiness. I’m living this right now and I know how our thoughts can be critical. Silence the inner critic and enjoy every minute of precious life! I’m rocking my inner mermaid 🧜🏽‍♀️ with no regrets.

We are all work in progress but having some space to reflect and process, and some tools to help along the way, well it can make a big difference.

So you might not be on a big trip, living your best life; it might be a difficult day, week or month. Focus on this moment, find joy in the small things and remember it will pass. It always does. And if looking at endless pics of people looking like they are success on speed - remember it’s just a glimpse on a happy moment. The difficult bits tend to get hidden.
