I am a skilled and compassionate therapist, experienced in working with a whole range of concerns, from performance anxiety and phobias, to depression and personality disorders. If there is a issue getting in the way of you living the life you want to live, or from achieving what you want to achieve, then therapy can help. I work with people both short and long term and I have a particular interest in helping people to overcome the impact of trauma.

Often people wonder what counselling provides you? Being a psychologist myself, it was during my personal therapy sessions, I experienced the safe place to grow and learn that therapy offered me. I genuinely take a person or client centered approach to support your growth and wellbeing. Being non-judgmental for me is the key for me to allow the person to explore and understand themselves. Often bringing in psycho-education, I have notices allows the individual to make sense of what they may be experiencing and that facilitates a change or shift in the direction they may expect.

We can all find ourselves at a point in our lives where things feel difficult. Sometimes our problems can grow so that we cannot see a way past them. I can offer you a safe and accepting space, free of judgment, to explore the things you are finding hard. Together, we can work to identify things you may want to change, or I can support you to work towards acceptance of things you may not be able to change. By supporting you in this way to explore your challenges and difficulties I can help you work towards a deeper understanding, a feeling of self-acceptance and a sense of empowerment in your life.

I am a fully qualified professional Counsellor who has a range of experience from working with children and young people to adults ranging from 18-60+. I provide a safe environment where you can come and explore any issues or feelings you have, without the fear of being judged or told what to do. I believe we all have the tools to solve our own problems or at least find some acceptance around them; sometimes things are just too hazy and jumbled to see clearly. In my own experience I have found that having the space to explore what is going on with another human being outside your personal life can work wonders. I am not saying I can

I strongly believe that in order to provide the best possible psychological help there is a need to build tailored, high-quality programmes for each and every client. I offer a bespoke approach with a strong focus on discretion, privacy and confidentiality.

You need have no experience of the arts to benefit from arts psychotherapy, just an openness to thinking creatively around the issues you bring to therapy.

Are you one of the many people who find themselves falling into, struggling to leave, or trying to recover from painful, destructive, abusive or addictive relationships? Perhaps you often ask yourself 'why are relationships so hard?' 'why do I keep falling for emotionally unavailable people?' 'Why can't I say no, even though I'm exhausted and burnt out?' If so, you're in the right place. These patterns can leave you feeling deeply confused and out of control of your life, questioning your own reality and bewildered about why it hurts so much.

By building resilience and inspiring hope, I can work with you to overcome the difficulties that are causing your emotional & mental suffering. I will support you as you begin to live a more fulfilled & contented life. Life can be messy & rarely turns out just the way we’d hoped or planned & shame can be a common theme associated with low self-esteem but we can reduce its impact. Do you feel ‘stuck’ in life, in a relationship or in your work life? Maybe you have been signed off from work, college or university with anxiety or stress. Perhaps feeling low or anxious is preventing you from enjoying the ‘sunshine‘ moments of your life.

I am happy for you to contact me, in whichever way you feel comfortable with, making this first move to contact someone is the hardest step of all and it takes courage. We can have a chat and you can have a think about whether you think and feel I can help you and whether you would feel comfortable to share and work with me. My method is holistic, which involves evaluating and encouraging the alignment of your complete being. Your mind, body and soul.

As a Clinical Psychologist and EMDR therapist I have experience working with adults with a range of difficulties including anxiety, depression and low mood, trauma and low self-esteem. Everybody experiences psychological distress but sometimes this can get in the way of us living our lives. When this happens, talking therapy can help us to reflect on how we got to where we are and explore ways of moving forward. I can help you to identify goals for therapy, offer emotional support, increase understanding and acceptance of self and provide practical strategies to help you make long lasting, meaningful change in your life.

Hello, I'm Abi. I am not going to guess why you are considering counselling. Everyone's reasons for seeking support are varied and unique to them. You are looking here, and that is the first step to trying it out. Counselling needs to be experienced to see if it works for you. We can work together to safely unravel any difficulties, challenges, or confusions to help you gain a better understanding of yourself, your values and priorities. I believe that enhancing your self-compassion and knowing yourself better can be the gateway to a more fulfilling and content life. Counselling with me can give you an opportunity to do that.

There can be times in life, where we may need help to weather emotional difficulties we encounter, to gain clarity and understanding. This may be through loss (bereavement or loss of a relationship, job or life changes), stress (anxiety, depression) and relationship problems (including how we feel about ourselves). There can be many reasons why you may be seeking help and it's a brave step to acknowledge and address this, by taking the first step in looking for support.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges, struggling to navigate through difficult emotions and find clarity in your thoughts? Rest assured, you're not alone. There is hope for a brighter tomorrow, and I'm here to guide you on that journey. Picture a life where you feel empowered to confront your fears, heal from past wounds, and embrace a future filled with possibilities. Through our shared reflection, you'll gain insight and discover your inner strength. Together, we'll create a safe space for exploration. With compassionate guidance, I'm committed to helping you find peace and contentment.
