I’m trained in a therapeutic approach called Person Centred Counselling & Psychotherapy. This means I will work collaboratively with you to help you deeply understand what life experiences have meant to you and help you to make sense of them so that you can move forward in your life.

Some of the areas I work with are – anxiety, depression, bereavement & loss, childhood abuse & trauma, family conflict, challenging relationships, domestic abuse, emotional regulation, self-harm & anger.

My work also includes people who feel that something is wrong in their lives but are unsure about what it is and if counselling could help. Life is varied and complex- your reasons for coming to counselling might be too.

I will provide a confidential space and a relationship accepting, safe, humorous and challenging enough that we can explore and try to understand the underlying causes and maintenance of your distress- together.

I work in a person centred way and as your counsellor/psychotherapist I will:

-Deeply respect you as a person and accept who you are right now – I believe that you know best what troubles/hurts/angers you.

-Believe that you have the capacity within you to start a process of understanding yourself.

-Commit to being my most honest and genuine self in all our interactions to create a therapeutic environment where real change may occur for you.

If our work together requires it I may draw on other therapeutic processes however as I believe you know yourself better than I ever could; I will not use techniques or strategies in our work together without you knowing and agreeing to them first. 

I offer a free 15 minute initial phone consultation so that we can see how we might best work together.
