General & Medical Counselling in Exeter

I offer a warm, safe and confidential space for you to be listened to. I work at your pace helping you to explore what you really want both from the counselling therapy and then concentrating more specifically, on areas of your life that you'd like to change or improve. If you have problems that keep going around and around in your head. If you are unhappy and can't identify why. If you are really struggling to cope with life then Counselling can offer an amazingly good emotional release. Offering you the comfort of feeling truly listened to and not judged.

I endeavour to provide a safe, comfortable, quiet space for clients to explore sensitive issues. The relationship between myself and the client is at the heart of my approach. I believe that being with a client and offering a compassionate holding presence while they share their story is essential before we can move towards an active therapeutic alliance. I adapt my work to suit the needs of each client and integrate suitable interventions to work with whatever the client is presenting.

This enables me to be creative and flexible in relation to the way my clients wish to work. I recognise the importance of working within the BACP ethical framework, which informs me of best practice and professional integrity.

I am a counsellor and psychotherapist and I trained at the Sherwood Institute for Counselling and Psychotherapists following a long career in law. I have a passion for working with client’s who suffer with trauma, disability and diversity related issues. I work on developing a therapeutic relationship with you where you can feel safe to explore difficult and painful issues in a confidential setting; issues that you may not have been able to disclose to anyone before.

Often in life we get stuck in patterns which, though once useful ways of being and relating, have now outgrown their usefulness to us, perhaps beginning to get in our way even. Psychotherapy can offer both the space to express, grasp and understand these patterns and then the support and challenge to grow in ways which seem right for you. I am currently seeing clients in person or online. I draw on a range of sources to bring my curiosity to meet you as a whole person. I am interested in your thoughts, feelings, your actions and what may be going on in your body as well as what may emerge in the here and now of our relationship.

Starting therapy is a brave and sometimes difficult decision. Our aim at SOS Therapies is to build a trusting relationship where we can work together collaboratively. If you are struggling SOS seeks to help you feel comfortable and safe to explore your feelings and experiences so that a way forward can be found.
