I offer a free 15 min consultation call.

I currently have availability on Wednesdays and Thursdays. 
Also, I am able to offer sessions on other days, though the day may vary each week. This flexibility may be suitable for those working shift patterns. 

At some point in our lives, we might experience events which leave us feeling anxious, overwhelmed and pushed to our limits. Counselling can provide the help we need to work through this and move on in our lives.

I am interested in people and their stories. Through these, I notice how repeated patterns of behaviour are linked to the past experiences, often from childhood. These patterns are generally linked to the attachments we formed with the adults in our lives, underpinning our beliefs about ourselves and others.

I offer a welcoming and confidential space to explore a variety of issues, such as: anxiety, self-esteem, depression, relationship issues, and the problems that come up with life changes; marriage, divorce, bereavement, menopause and identify whether short or long term counselling is appropriate.

In the short term we can consider your strengths and develop helpful coping strategies, and through longer term we might recognise unhelpful feeling and thinking patterns learned and developed in childhood. I can help you to recognise and understand this and together we can find the opportunities for change.

In releasing the past, you can enjoy life and allow you to become your best self.

My motivation to become a counsellor developed from my career in social care, mental health, and trauma informed services, working with vulnerable adolescents, adults and children. I wanted to understand the underlying trauma and how this impacts the person in their daily life.

I qualified in Counselling using Transactional Analysis in 2015, this is a modality that can be readily shared with you to enhance your awareness and deepen your understanding of issues, processes and self, and also to identify the changes that you want to make and to find your own solutions.

I work gently and intuitively to connect empathically with others to gain awareness and understanding of how the body and mind are inter-related, influencing our experience and responses.
