Navigate Psychology

You’re at a point where you are sick of feeling like you’re on a rollercoaster that goes between anxiety, stress and low mood. You find yourself people pleasing and find it hard to say no to people. You are high achieving but still feel like something is missing. You feel empty... whatever you do, it is never enough. You may set goals for yourself in some areas of your life, but procrastinate because underneath you're terrified you’ll fail if you try. You sometimes feel like an imposter

10 Questions with Rebecca Anderson

What led you to choose psychotherapy or counselling as a profession?
I want to help people to understand why they feel and behave the way they do. When people understand *why* they do something, they have the awareness and power to change things and move from just surviving, to thriving.
What do you like most about being a therapist?
I feel honoured that people trust me with their deepest fears, insecurities and secrets. I love that my clients can be so vulnerable, raw and honest about what is happening for them. I feel really happy that I do what I do.
Can you share the name of a book, film, song, event or work of art that inspires you?
One of my favourite books in psychology is 'The Dance of Anger' by Harriet Lerner.
