Couples

Being part of a couple can be the most beautiful yet also the most challenging and painful thing. My work with couples begins with learning a new way to communicate that honours both of you and your perspectives and creates safety. From this place of safety, we can feel connected to our partner and expereince the joy that relationship can bring. WE take care of the relational space between you, so that you can safely share your truth with your partner and can hear theirs. Rather than finding yourselves in a power struggle vying for your own position, you find yourself as a team working together to take care of your relationship. Of course for some people, it has become too painful for too long and the need is for an ending. Even here, we can communicate and navigate that process with consciousness and compassion holding a painful process in love.

My role is to teach you methods to dialogue, to hold a loving space within which you can hear yourselves and each other.

WE learn about intimate relationships from our original family from the moment we are born into them. The likelihood is that you and your partner do not have a blueprint for healthy conscious relating. You and your partner will bring with you into your relationship, childhood wounds and models of relationship that limit your capacity to give and receive love. We all have this to some degree or other. My aim is to help you uncover these so that you heal yourselves, grow the skills to create and sustain fulfilling loving relationship.

Initial sessions are an hour costing £85 Subsequent sessions are 90 mins and cost £120

Individuals

Sometimes, life gets a bit too much. Maybe something happened recently or a long time ago that brings lots of feelings and you see no obvious way through. Or perhaps you have a growing sense of anxiety or depression with or without an understandable reason. Maybe you find yourself doing the same things again and again, that don't serve you and wonder why? I believe that each and every one of us has the key to work through those things and sometimes we need some help. Counselling can be that help. My aim is to create a safe space where clients feel able to voice their thoughts, feelings, concerns and anxieties. What makes it safe is a defined space for you to focus on you, a commitment from me to listen without imposing judgement, and to be genuine. A confidential space separate from friends and family where you can explore the things that are important to you at your own pace.

I am a counsellor rooted in the person centered tradition, but since training, this has expanded to embrace ideas from gestalt and existential therapies, trauma informed modalities as well as energy psychology and spiritual ideas.

I have experience of working with young people in school and in private practice. I have worked for EAP providers, voluntary organsisations and in private practice.

My underpinning theory for supervision is Shohet’s 7 eyed model. believe in and am committed to supervision as a restorative and growthful process. My hope is for practitioners to find a safe enough place within supervision with me, that they are able to bring the difficult things, reflect and embrace challenge. AS practitioners, our greatest asset is our self, so it is my aim to pay attention to you as a practitioner, to what you might need in sessions so that in turn, you are most fully resourced to engage with your clients to your greatest potential.
