I am committed to helping you work through what is troubling you in a safe and non-judgmental environment. I offer this with empathy, respect and confidentiality, empowering you to explore your thoughts and feelings, at your own pace and to feel heard and supported in order for you to have greater perspective and reach your full potential. I am trained to work with adults and young people and I also work with psychosexual issues after gaining a Level 5 COSRT Accreditation in Psychosexual Therapy. I have 16 years experience working with young people and adults in NHS and a community service and with a wide range of issues.
I am a BACP-accredited therapist, Clinical Supervisor and Level 4 Counselling Diploma tutor with experience in offering supervision and therapy to trainees/newly qualified counsellors. I am qualified integratively, meaning I can draw on different theoretical approaches to suit each need. I am able to work long or short term.
I know, for me, getting the right fit with a counsellor where I felt comfortable and accepted was probably the most important part of my search. It can be daunting but please do contact me for an initial conversation by phone/email and hopefully, I can put your mind at rest and we can look at how I can best support you and answer any questions you may have.
