I have currently a space available.

I am a person-centred counsellor who is trained in EMDR and is working in a trauma informed way. That means first and foremost that I firmly believe in the healing capacities we all carry inside and that it is possible to change, overcome unhealthy ways of living, recover from trauma, become able to relate to others in a healthy way, and to live life more fully. Non-judgement, authenticity and kindness are at the heart of my way of working. It is important to me that my clients feel safe, relaxed and in control.

When trauma happens, we are overwhelmed with emotions for which we have no real means to cope with. To get through we go into ‘survival mode’. If we have experienced trauma over a longer period of time, such as growing up in a dysfunctional home, we will have coped with overwhelming emotions on an ongoing basis. We might not even know that there is another way of feeling. Working in a trauma informed way means helping you to feel secure before processing any traumatic memories/experiences. 

I can help with grounding, feeling safer and developing a deeper understanding of self, behaviour and feelings that might seem to make no sense. I will do that in a person-centred and trauma informed way, which means that decisions will be made together and at no point will you be asked to talk about anything or try something you do not want to.

I will first arrange a free of charge 30minutes consultation via zoom where you can tell me more about what you are looking for and I will explain a little bit in more detail on how I work. It will help you to decide if my approach would work for you. If we both think that we can work together we would agree to a number of sessions, and after 6-8 sessions, we review the progress and decide on the next steps. The length of the counselling depends on your needs. I offer short term and long term counselling. 

If you are interested in receiving EMDR therapy please let me know and we can discuss it. The fee for EMDR sessions is £55.

In the first session I will go through the counselling agreement with you. I will explain in more detail how the first session looks, what to expect in the free consultation/chat.
