About me and my therapy practice

I believe that counselling is a powerful and special opportunity to grow and heal. My role is to provide a truly listening ear in a quiet, professional, compassionate and safe space where you can be yourself and gently work through whatever you may need to.

As a person, I am warm and grounded and someone you will find easy to talk to and trust. I work in a tailored, integrative way to best support your individual needs and am not bound within one counselling methodology or modality. I will tailor our sessions to your needs, helping you to work towards any goals you may have, or simply offer my support along your journey to better mental health and wellbeing. We can explore feelings, emotions, thoughts and life patterns that may be causing you pain or distress. Whether you want to explore and make sense of your life today or work on past experiences that appear to be holding you back, I very much hope that I can be of help.

The special therapeutic relationship that this requires is something I hugely value and see as a great privilege. Ultimately, I aim to respect who you are and help you realise and expand your understanding of yourself and your needs.

Together, we can enable you to find better ways of being, which can be done at a pace and in a manner that you are comfortable with to help you manage your present experience in a healthier way. You can also be joined in your session by my trained therapy dog (a Bichon Frisé) if you would find this beneficial.

Taking time out to nurture yourself is hugely important and often much needed. Whatever your reason for looking for support at this time, I understand the effort and leap of faith that this involves. I look forward to receiving your call or email and starting your journey.
