Emotional Wellbeing with
Funbi Sarras MA DipPsych MBPsS MBACP (Accred)
If you're feeling angry, stuck, overwhelmed, empty, anxious or similar; and feel like you want to reach out for support to see you through, then exploring your emotions at Chrysalis Place may bring the kind of transformation you are looking for.

A service for everyday people
Most, if not all, of us come across challenges as part of our 'normal' lives. Over time, some people find that their lives and persona become more distinctly defined by the challenges, making it seem 'obvious' to those around that they need help.
My emotional wellbeing services can provide a quality of human interaction that enables people - whether or not it is obvious that they are struggling - to transform their experience of life challenges into something beautiful; like personal growth, relationship restoration, peace of mind etc.
Areas we can work together on include:
Addictions
Anger
Anxiety
Bereavement
Depression
Dissociation
Loneliness
Obsessions (or OCD)
Relationship issues
Self-harm
Spirituality
Stress
Suicidal thoughts
Trauma
Work related issues
etc
A supportive service
Therapeutic support for life's challenges is provided in many different ways depending on a myriad of factors, including, culture and environment; therapist and client. Essentially, my emotional wellbeing services can provide
-
spaces in time that are dedicated to growth and/or transformation;
-
a quality of human interaction that enables you towards your positive goals;
-
a place where it is safe to connect with your reality, and more.
Upholding your autonomy
The work is collaborative, leaving you ultimately responsible for yourself. This is a positive thing as it highlights your freedom to be who you need to be on your path to becoming more like you want to be.

Me as an emotional wellbeing therapist
My formal training as a psychologist and then an integrative psychotherapist covered various philosophies about the human condition and how to provide effective support through life's challenges by appropriately integrating therapeutic methods. My approach, therefore, incorporates some of the following schools of thought:
-
Humanistic, person-centered philosophies - ensuring authenticity and client autonomy are maintained
-
Cognitive behavioural approaches - helping engage analytically with issues
-
Existential psychodynamics - understanding the existential nature of internal conflicts
Tools I use include:
-
Art and drama - useful in working through long standing unhelpful coping strategies
-
Mindfulness - useful for Acceptance and Commitment therapies
-
Listening to the body - especially useful in cases of trauma and dissociation
