I am a Person-centred counsellor with 6 years of experience working with adults. I believe a person can grow, flourish and find the right path for themselves, given the right conditions within the therapeutic relationship. My counselling style is non-directive with a positive outlook on human nature and I believe in the therapeutic power of being authentic within the relationship, communicating empathy and having unconditional positive regard for my clients
The first session of 30 minutes is free of charge ,and the time is used as an assessment of your needs and expectations. We can discuss confidentiality, safety and contractual matters such as ,number of sessions ,do you want in person or online contact. I can answer all your concerns before we start.
I understand that this journey can be, and often is, very difficult and uncomfortable; I am here to help you through it. You and your well-being are at the heart of our work together; I believe it takes great bravery and courage to start exploring your difficulties.

I believe we all have the capability and drive within us to live our best lives, however, due to various circumstances this can become diminished. I believe our past affects our present and can affect our future, in addition to often being a contributory factor to our diminished drive and capabilities. My role as a therapist is to give you the space to explore your past and present

I like to start with person centred therapy, as Carl Rogers always believed that the answer lies with the client , and they are not aware of it. I will work with the client to explore all option to find, if the solution is evident , or help them to accept their issue.
