In theory, talking therapy is simple, but it takes courage to open up. Counselling can be painful, exposing and hard work. It can also be illuminating, empowering and provide relief. Counselling offers you the freedom to discuss your feelings and helps you gain insight into your thoughts, emotions and behaviour. Some people seek acceptance and others seek change. During our sessions I will listen and help you to explore aspects of your life that you find difficult.

I am a person-centered counsellor and use an integrative approach, drawing on different techniques and resources which allow you to find what suits you best in your therapeutic goals.  We work collaboratively, exploring areas in the past or present to get a deeper understanding and find ways to experience life in a more balanced or positive way.

Person-centred counselling is a mode of therapy which assists the client to look at their thoughts, experiences and behaviour. The client is the expert on themselves, so my role is to listen and encourage the client to do the work they need to find more balance. 

​I believe it can help to use other therapy approaches which are more directive. I use elements of other models including cognitive-behavioural therapy to work on identified issues within or outside of the session. This allows clients to do work in real life. I also use psycho-education which can help explain some of the feelings clients may have. Knowledge is powerful and can de-mystify some of the negative feelings we all experience.

I work from The Practice Rooms in the centre of Norwich, which provides a calm, traditional setting for counselling sessions.

Our initial meeting will be a time to discuss your expectations of counselling and how we might go forward together. There is a reduced rate for our initial consultation. Contact me for further information.
