Relationship Counselling – Couples, Adults, Families and Self
A safe and supportive space to understand your relationships
Relationships are a part of everyday life, but navigating them isn't always easy. Whether it's our relationship with ourselves, our partners or within our families, we can sometimes find ourselves caught in patterns, struggling to communicate or feeling unheard and misunderstood.
At Chapter You Counselling, I provide a space where you can openly explore the challenges in your relationships, without judgement. No relationship is perfect, and sometimes we need a little support to understand what's happening, recognise the patterns we find ourselves in and explore what a healthier, more balanced relationship might look like.
As an integrative counsellor and relationship therapist, I work with individuals, couples and families to explore communication, understand emotions and develop a greater awareness of ourselves and each other. Whether you're experiencing difficulties in your relationship, navigating family challenges or wanting to develop a healthier relationship with yourself, we can work together to make sense of things and explore what might help.
I also work with children and young people, offering an approach tailored to their individual needs. Through talking therapies, creative approaches and CBT-based tools, I support children and young people to explore their feelings, develop confidence and navigate the challenges they may be facing.
Counselling isn't about having all the answers or being told what to do. It's about having the space to explore, understand and work things through together, helping you find your voice, build healthier connections and feel more confident in yourself and your relationships.
Chapter You Counselling offers relationship counselling, couples counselling, family support and individual counselling in Didcot, Oxfordshire, and online.
Parenting isn’t easy, let’s be honest; it can often feel overwhelming. Whether you’re struggling to connect with your determined three-year-old, navigating screen time challenges, or experiencing aggression from your child, we are here to help. This therapeutic parenting approach focuses on building relationships and fostering connections, even in the face of difficult behaviours. By examining our reactions and interactions as adults, we can enhance family dynamics and support our children’s growth. Our methods are rooted in the principles of NVR and are informed by an understanding of trauma and attachment.
I work integratively, which means that I am able to draw upon a range of counselling theories and parenting coaching skills that have been developed through working within national Charities (Childline & Cruse) alongside working within primary and secondary schools with children and families. My approach is rooted within Person Centred with the ability to draw on therapeutic skills that allow a truly unique approach to support.
It's completely normal to feel apprehensive about therapy and uncertain about what to expect. I am committed to making you feel welcome and at ease throughout the process. Confidentiality is of utmost importance, and I prioritise the beliefs, well-being, and opinions of young people in all that I do.
My name is Dawn Gigg and I am based in the heart of Didcot, with a purpose built therapeutic space and ample car parking. Appointments are available both in person and online. I offer a free, no obligation 15-minute call so that we can get to know one another. Rest assured, there is no obligation after the initial consultation—your comfort and trust are my top priorities.
