About me and my therapy practice

Do you need to talk to someone in a safe , non judgemental space?  To off load or untangle your thought's? To process the past or present? Are you considering therapy but are unsure where to start or how to begin explaining how you feel ? 

I offer a therapeutic space in which we can work together at your pace.  Therapy like life is a process, I will journey with you through this process providing a non judgemental therapeutic environment for you to be able to engage positively in therapy. Assisting you to gain positive self worth and confidence , as well as helping you  gain clarity, acceptance and understanding of your emotions, your life, your past and the world around you. Counselling and psychotherapy is a process by which  together we will work step by step through the issues and challenges which have brought you to seek therapy. This may include anxiety, depression worry, panic,sadness, adult or child trauma, loss and grief, self acceptance, relationship issues, relationship loss ( romantic or family relationships), workplace issues, low self confidence, loss of direction. 

I believe Counselling and psychotherapy have the potential to be the ultimate self care. Participation in therapy can help alleviate emotional pain and distress and bring hope and perspective. 

Practice description
