Do you want to talk in confidence about your experience of being a Dad? Being a Dad can be the most challenging role a man can face in their life. Simon Cook is a male counsellor in Basingstoke and a Father who provides counselling for Dads at his therapy room in Basing View, RG21.
Maybe you’re feeling under pressure or struggling to cope with everything you’re trying to juggle. Perhaps you don’t know where to start and being a Dad just doesn’t feel natural to you. If you didn’t have a good relationship with your own Father when you were growing up there is a good chance that you never received the benefit of a decent father figure as a role model.
Pressure can come from the rest of your family and the child’s Mother who might expect you to be a certain way and you just can’t find that within yourself. This in turn can have you wondering what’s wrong with you and why you can’t seem to do it when all the other Dads seem to be coping just fine. Furthermore, society and stereotypes will often present Dads as being superhuman and there are numerous expectations on Fathers to be a certain way.
Counsellor for Dads in Basingstoke
Counselling can provide support to navigate your way through the complex emotions, the reactions you might be experiencing and the changes that you find yourself facing.
Therapy is a safe and private space to explore possible feelings of depression, confusion, desperation and inadequacy that can accompany being a Dad. No father will have the same experience and it can be helpful to speak confidentially to someone who won’t judge you whilst knowing that you are not going to be a burden.
I’m a counsellor with a private therapy room on the edge of Basingstoke town centre and I’m also a Dad so if you are looking for support, please get in touch and I’ll look forward to welcoming you very soon.
