About me and my therapy practice
Hello, I am an integrative therapeutic counsellor and I am genuine, friendly and experienced in improving mental well being. I offer warmth, support, and a confidential space without judgment to listen to whatever is troubling you, whether it’s from the past, present or future. Life can present us with many challenges, and sometimes we need extra support to find our way through.
Counselling can be transformative, helping to resolve issues, improve relationships, and develop greater self-awareness, resilience, and confidence. I would help you to explore your world and work through the emotions, difficulties, or changes you are facing. I aim to help you find strategies and tools that will benefit you in the short term and in the future.
I have taken extensive training in understanding the physiological changes experienced in the body during anxiety, depression, and trauma. Understanding the mind body link in mental health can be key to taking back control, reducing symptoms and being able to live our best lives.
I work well with anxiety, depression, low self esteem, perfectionism, and issues in relationships. I have taken additional training in CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) and Compassion Focussed Therapy to support my work.
I was a former volunteer counsellor at The Hummingbird Cancer Support Centre in Bicester where I supported people affected by cancer including terminal illness and bereavement. Additionally I was a volunteer counsellor at Nais House in Bicester providing mental health support for young people ages 16-30, specialising in self harm and suicide prevention.
I recognise that everyone is unique, and my integrative approach is tailored to suit your individual needs and supported by my training and experience of three counselling models. I can work on either a short- or long-term basis depending on what is required. I can offer both online and face to face counselling.
