 Welcome to Eva Baker's website
Counsellor
Psychotherapist
UKCP registered
I provide individual and couple counselling/therapy which is respectful of your view of the world and beliefs. I work in a holistic way treating each person who comes to me as a unique individual, no matter what the problem they are dealing with might be. Problems often are about blocks and symptoms, conflicts and polarities, crisis and crossroads. They can keep us stuck or lead to insight and self-awareness, take us out of pain and fear, anger and shame through acceptance, change and transformation to love and power, growth and maturity, and hopefully wisdom. The problems I have helped people to deal with include: Relationship difficulties,
Work/study/career, difficulties
Stress arising from personal or work related issues
Ethnic identity and cultural issues
Low self esteem and lack of confidence
Depression, long or short term
Separation, loss and mourning
Loss of meaning, loss of direction
Anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, obsessive thoughts and actions
Issues around sexual self expression and intimacy
Sexual orientation and gender identity
Sexual abuse, sexual addiction
Emotional and physical abuse, domestic violence
Managing anger
Loss of health, disability, long term and terminal illness
Miscarriage, fertility, IVF
Loss of a pet, a home, a valued object or a project
Loss of a skill, a capacity, wealth, status, power, honour, ...
Blocks in creativity, and search for creative self expression
Weight problems and eating disorders
Addiction to smoking, alcohol, drugs, sex, internet, exercise, work, ...
Mood swings
Spiritual/belief/religious crisis
Existential issues and moral dilemmas
I offer brief and longer term therapy, recognizing that people vary in the amount of time it takes to resolve a problem, according to how deep-rooted the problem is and each individual's readiness and capacity for change.
My practice is based in a peaceful setting in Hitchin, Hertfordshire, within easy reach from Ickleford, Letchworth, Baldock, Stevenage, Knebworth, Welwyn Garden City, Luton and Bedford. |
