Life takes us all by surprise at times and sometimes we can bounce back, but sometimes we need a bit of a helping hand; being able to identify those times and reach out is a sign of strength and the first step to taking control.
I am a nurse and midwife of many years, with significant experience of anxiety management, complex grief and untangling the very difficult background, circumstances, dynamics and emotions around all forms and impacts of loss, not just the death of a loved one. I have a keen interest in domestic abuse, particularly narcissistic abuse and coercive control.

Remember you need not be alone in your struggles, I am here to help you.

However, I see Counselling as a way for someone, who is struggling to start to look at themselves and their lives from a different perspective, this process can enable a person to see that change is possible and they can make the necessary changes for a better life.
Hello there, I qualified to practice back in 2002, from here I worked full time as a Counsellor for an Alcohol service. I worked for ten years with clients where the presenting issue was alcohol misuse, however there were many other issues our clients struggled with, such as Depression, Anxiety, Low Self Esteem etc. I have extensive experience of successfully working with clients to make significant changes and to reach their goals. Since leaving this service, I have worked in a variety of therapeutic settings, gaining more and varied experience. I can help with most issues and usually without a need for long term therapy.

I understand that life can be difficult and challenging and you may be struggling because you are going through a transitional period or feeling stuck which can be hard to deal with on your own, but it does not have to be.
I work with a wide range of issues; including depression, anxiety, stress and grief. However, I specialise in working with clients experiencing relational problems, sexual trauma, complex post-traumatic stress disorder, disassociation and impostor syndrome. I do not give advice, and Integrative counselling is not one approach that fits all.

I can help with anxiety, self-criticism, low mood, social and relationship difficulties, volatile emotions, life transitions, phobias, and habits you'd like to stop.
My primary approach is personal construct psychology - a positive approach that explores how you have come to understand yourself and your world. You might feel stuck and want to change, or you might feel all at sea and want to get safely anchored. The PCP approach will help you to have deeper understanding of who you are and who you want to be.
