Perhaps you have experienced a stressful/traumatic life event e.g. a death or a relationship break-up and need to reprocess symptoms of emotional distress. Maybe these symptoms have led to struggles with addiction, depression, anxiety? Together we can work through reprocessing these symptoms. I mainly use two psychotherapeutic approaches, EMDR & Brainspotting, both are brain based techniques which are reported to alleviate symptoms caused by traumatic memories. I work with PTSD/Complex PTSD, Relationship & Couple Issues. My aim is to promote personal harmony, growth and mind/body balance into your everyday life.

We all have difficulties in life at different points, and most of the time we are able to just get on with it. But sometimes, we just need to pause and work with what we are experiencing. I understand that taking this step can be difficult but Counselling/Psychotherapy can help with this, and the feelings, thoughts, anxieties and lack of meaning that may have become your normal. Talking to someone can bring a positive change and help you regain your sense of self. I have experience of working with clients that bring a range of issues to the room, helping them work towards their goals and happiness.

Often clients contact me when other therapy has not helped them in the way they had hoped. This is often due to the complexity of difficulties being layered perhaps in a history of trauma. Distress in the body and mind can be triggered by what appears to be something superficial. This can open up the past or come at a time when our emotional resilience is low so this event has a greater impact than it may have done. We can find ourselves not being able to function in our normal way. Many clients often identify as 'good copers' and those who 'just get on with it'. Perhaps we can't now - this is frightening and can derail us.

Having supported others for years through; trauma, abuse, bereavement, domestic violence, depression, suicidal attempts, that when my career as a Royal Military Police Officer came to a natural end, I wanted to continue to support others, so pursued a career in counselling. Life can be tough, filled with challenges which have helped to build your character, but it may also be such experiences which have led you to seek counselling support. Your life, cultural background and upbringing are some of the reasons that make you unique! Therefore, therapy will be specifically tailored to your individual needs.
