I am on leave from Friday 20th December to Monday 6th January. I will be able to reply to messages as soon as I can when I return.

Hello and welcome to my directory profile. I hope you find all of the information you need, please contact me if you have any queries or would like to book an appointment.

Counselling provides you with a supportive, confidential and safe environment where you will be valued and listened to in a respectful and non-judgmental way. An effective form of therapy, it can help you make positive changes to your life and deal with any issues that may feel overwhelming or are causing you emotional pain, unhappiness or stress. It can help you explore difficult issues and gain more insight into understanding yourself and your problems whilst finding solutions that are right for you.

I am an experienced counsellor, supervisor and trainer, working mainly from a Person-Centred modality whilst using an integrative approach (using techniques from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Attachment Theory and The Rewind Technique for trauma (PTS/PTSD/CPTSD) to support each client in the best way for them. I have experience counselling a wide range of issues including low self-esteem and confidence, grief and loss, depression, anxiety, stress, specializing in trauma and abuse. I believe that everyone has the ability to reach their unique, full potential and lead a fulfilling life in a way that is right for them.

I will soon be offering Equine Assisted Learning and Therapy. Working with beautifully intelligent and intuitive horses creates a deeper level of understanding about our emotions, interactions and behaviour. Proven to be especially beneficial for trauma and for those looking to improve teamwork and leadership skills. Watch this space for further details!
