Would you find it helpful to explore current or past issues that are causing you distress or difficulty? Do you have a history of complex trauma and abuse, or do you struggle with anxiety on a day to day basis? I have over 24years supervised counselling experience of working with complex trauma, addiction and anxiety. I can come alongside you to help you deepen your awareness of your feelings, thoughts and body sensations, working towards a more integrated sense of self. Creating a safe space for you to explore any deeper underlying issues, and working at your pace, are central to my counselling practice.
I am an integrative counsellor which means that I am able to draw from different modalities so that I can tailor the counselling to suit you as an individual. I specialise in working with complex trauma and dissociative disorders. I am also experienced in working with addiction and anxiety as well as the day to day issues that everyone can struggle with.
Finding the right counsellor is really important for you to feel safe and enable you to explore what is going on for you at a deeper level. Please contact me to discuss what you are looking for in a counsellor and what you hope to get from counselling, to see if I feel like the right match for you.
