Emotional Wellbeing

At Holden Place Therapy, we support emotional wellbeing through life’s many shifts and challenges. Our work often involves helping people find steadiness when anxiety, low mood, or a sense of overwhelm begins to take hold. Sometimes these feelings appear after loss or trauma, but often they surface quietly, through stress, change, or simply the pace of modern life.

We recognise that emotional health isn’t separate from physical health. Many of the people we work with are navigating the hormonal and identity changes of peri-menopause or menopause, noticing how mood, energy, and self-confidence can fluctuate. These are deeply human experiences, and they deserve understanding rather than judgement or dismissal.

Our approach focuses on helping you make sense of what you’re feeling and why. Together, we explore patterns of thought and emotion, build emotional regulation skills, and reconnect you with sources of meaning, pleasure, and rest. Therapy can be a space to slow down, reflect, and rediscover a sense of balance and self-trust.

Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, or simply feeling stuck, we offer a calm and supportive environment to help you move towards greater clarity, confidence, and wellbeing, at your own pace and in your own way.

I really benefited from my time with Claire. I was in a very bad place, and she has helped me see a way forward and gave me the help I needed. Thank you.
