About me and my therapy practice
I was inspired to pursue a career in counselling because I experienced a lack of access to mental health services personally and professionally and wanted to improve this access for others. I work together with individual clients’ to find the best approach for them, I have experience working with a wide variety of subjects such as depression, relationship concerns, anxiety and many other areas. I can work with individuals over 18, regrettably, I do not offer children’s or couples counselling at this time.
I am an integrative counsellor, this means that I tailor my approach to you personally by utilising various techniques from many different types of therapy.
This allows us to work towards where you want to be together without being tied to one way of working. For example, the underpinning principles of the Person-Centred Approach are focused on the counsellor being honest, non-judgmental and fully accepting whilst the core of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is working with negative thought patterns and identifying more positive responses. I offer sessions on the phone and Zoom currently, you do not have to turn the camera on if you do not feel comfortable. This entirely online model again promotes accessibility and flexibility which I feel, are central to building a relationship where the therapy works around you and not the other way around.
