About me and my therapy practice
Counselling can offer genuine help and support when you are struggling. I approach each counselling relationship with warmth, openness and humour. Although the idea of opening up to another person might seem initially frightening, I hope that when we meet you will feel welcomed and enabled to tell your story. I will listen empathically to what you have to say, and help to guide you through the counselling process. I am an integrative counsellor, meaning that I draw upon ideas from several different theories to inform my understanding and to support you as an individual.
Practice description
I believe it is through both better understanding of yourself and the supportive therapeutic relationship that real change is made possible. Counselling can offer you a space to be heard and listened to, to find new ways of approaching your life and to feel like you can be more fully yourself in the outside world.
My first session
Counselling might feel like strange experience in the beginning. It can feel difficult to speak to another person about what's troubling you, especially someone you don't know at first. I will do my best to ensure that you feel counselling is a safe and secure, confidential environment. When we begin I will invite you to tell your story of what brings you to counselling and I will listen to what you have to say without judgement. We can discuss together what you would like out of counselling, and I will be honest with you about what might be possible.What I can help with
