About me and my therapy practice
Sometimes life can be challenging. I am a compassionate counsellor offering you the space and opportunity to explore what is troubling you, and to help you find new perspectives with which to engage with life.
My way of working is relational and client-centred. I feel the primary focus is to develop a therapeutic relationship based on trust and compassion. I want to offer you a safe space, to be heard without judgement, where all of you can be accepted, and where there are no expectations. As an existential counsellor, I draw on what it means to be human and want to explore with you, your current difficulties and past patterns. Together we can discover and bring awareness to your way of being in the world, and relating to yourself and others. With awareness, I believe comes hope of developing a better understanding of how you might move forward and come to better terms with life and all of its confusing complexity.
I have studied psychology, counselling, and psychotherapy, and am informed in a number of approaches including existential, psychodynamic, cognitive behavioural, and compassion-focused therapy.
