"In the heart of difficulty we can find our deepest potential." Are you suffering or feeling blocked in certain areas of your life, somehow know or just hope that things could be different, yet fear opening up to explore that? This is not a sign of failure or weakness – it is simply part of what it means to be human. Living in a body in the world is not easy and we inevitably find ourselves hurt and injured. Counter-intuitively, if we attend to those inner wounds and difficulties we find that some of our deepest gifts and capacities are lying hidden or dormant in those places. That is the secret of the journey of healing in therapy.

We all have times in life when things seem to get on top of us. We may feel confused, anxious or depressed. Sometimes it feels like we are just going round in circles, getting nowhere in particular. Having someone to talk to can lighten the load and this is often easier with someone other than family or friends.

We all have times when life isn't going as we want it to. We might feel stuck in the same old loops and no matter how we try we cant seem to find the way out. ​ We may have experienced a life event which has thrown us off course or have just woken up one day wanting a change. We might be tired of hearing ourselves tell our nearest and dearest how we would like things to be different and have decided now it's time to get some help to get things moving.

I work with a whole spectrum of needs and goals and find that therapy is all about the trust in the therapeutic relationship, once trust is built, the therapy really begins and the desired change can come. I follow your pace and respond to your needs as they arise.

For me, counselling is a process of opening ourselves up; safely and gently, so that we can learn more about ourselves and understand who we really are. Throughout our lives we grow to accept ourselves and become who we are meant to be. There will be times when the challenges we face in life can become overwhelming. I believe that by talking about the difficult things, exploring and questioning our processes we can overcome obstacles in our lives. I will work alongside you, to help you through whatever difficulties you are experiencing. I will offer you warmth, compassion and empathy.
