You might notice changes in mood, confidence or motivation, or find yourself questioning decisions, relationships or purpose. Everyday life can start to feel flat or directionless. Having space to talk about what’s happening can make a real difference.
Counselling offers time to explore what’s keeping you stuck, understand your emotions and reconnect with what matters most. Together, we can find ways to help you feel more grounded, focused and ready to move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
Counselling for feeling stuck can help when you feel uncertain about where life is heading or disconnected from the direction you want to move in.

Counselling and coaching can work together to help you regain direction, rebuild confidence and make meaningful changes.

I’m Anne Raw, a Counsellor and Coach based in Sheffield. People often describe me as calm, present, thoughtful and easy to talk to, with a grounded sense of humour that helps lighten even the heavier moments.
I became a counsellor after many years of supporting people through the challenges of feeling stuck or losing direction., and seeing how powerful it can be to have someone truly listen. That experience inspired me to train formally and offer others the same space for clarity, resilience and self-understanding.
I work integratively, drawing on counselling and coaching approaches depending on what feels most helpful for you. We might explore what’s keeping you stuck, how your thoughts or emotions are affecting you, or focus on small, practical steps to build momentum. The aim is to help you understand yourself more clearly and regain a sense of purpose and balance.
Together, we create a calm, collaborative space built on trust and care. You’ll be encouraged to explore at your own pace, supported with understanding as you rebuild confidence, clarity and direction in your life.
