Are you constantly experiencing relationship challenges, leaving you feeling distressed, bewildered, let down and perhaps angry and self-blaming for repeating these patterns? It can be utterly devastating to keep finding ourselves stuck in this way. Whether in intimate relationships, family dynamics, friendships or work situations, I can support you to explore the origins of these difficult issues, leading to healthier relationships with others.

Hi, My name is Mandy and I have been told I am a down to earth warm hearted person. I mainly use the person-centred approach where the client is seen as the expert on themselves. This I understand can seem challenging as often people want an expert to guide them or tell them what to do particularly if you are feeling lost and confused and not sure how to feel better. What I love about this approach mainly created by Carl Rogers is that it makes a lot of sense to me. His view is that everyone has the ability given the right conditions can grow and evolve as a person, feeling more aware, happy and able to cope better with life.
