My website

I'm a counsellor with years of experience working with children, teenagers and young people as well as adults. I use a range of different counselling styles to help you with your issues in a way that works for you. I work in a non-judgemental way to help you untangle and unlock your issues. Often emotions and behaviours are caused by unknown and unmet needs. I work in a supportive person-centred way to help you to find whatever it is that makes you angry, worried, stressed, lacking in confidence and any other unwanted feeling. With support you will be able to change these negative feelings and find control over your emotions.

I offer 1-1 counselling for children, teenagers, young people and adults either online or in person at my counselling room or in your school, college or university. The sessions can be tailored to how you want to be supported. Some clients benefit from a talking therapy, others prefer creative style such as art therapy, or sand tray benifits them more.

Are you struggling with aspects of your life? Is your past impacting on you now? Sometimes having someone who listens, understands and allows you the time to work through current of past issues is all that is needed to help you find a way to a happy life. You can drop me a message, we can have a chat and see if it's something you'd like to give a go.

Many issues which impact your life originate in difficult and traumatic childhoods, we can work together to explore your experiences and how they are still affecting you. This will help to replace damaging thoughts and feeling with positive thoughts and feelings.

I use a mix of methods within our sessions. I find that as you find out more about yourself, I find out more about which methods of counselling works better for you. Some times this will be using a creative style, such as sandtray, other times it will be more of a talking therapy.
