(Online therapy available) Hello and Welcome, Life can often throw us unwelcome surprises and sometimes we need help beyond our circle of friends, someone who is not only a good listener, but a skilled and experienced practitioner. As a Senior Accredited Psychotherapist with a Masters degree; I've seen thousands come through my door and undergo transformation, healing and leave with hope for the future. I am committed to the healing, the well-being and development of you as a whole person: body, mind and spirit. I offer counselling for adults & adolescents, and Christian Counselling.

A confidential, non-judgmental space where you can explore positive and challenging aspects of your life and any change you wish to explore or make. I have personal experience in sexual, physical, emotional and mental abuse; divorce; living with a Narcissist; step-parenting and living in an Ex-pat community. The approaches I predominantly use are Solution Focused, Bowenian Systemic approach, Brainspotting or Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy (EFP). All approaches work with clients, though I have found 'Walk and Talk' or EFP best for adolescents or those suffering with PTSD or Trauma, along with Brainspotting.

Counselling can help you to explore and work through emotional difficulties you may be experiencing that could be affecting your thoughts and behaviours. It is a space for you to share things that you may be finding difficult to talk to your friends and family about. These difficulties may be from your past that are now causing problems in your present or from a more recent trauma you have experienced in your life such as a relationship break-up, loss of someone close to you or difficulties with getting to sleep or sleep not feeling like sleep anymore, but feeling more like an escape.

Hello, how are you really feeling? Are you able to voice your needs? Are you constantly too critical of yourself? Are you finding it hard to say no to people? Are you overwhelmed and running on empty? What’s your stress and anxiety level? How is your love relationship? Do you have social anxiety? Are you feeling sad and don't know why? So many questions and issues that we all feel at times with a different level of intensity. Don’t wait and let it build up to overwhelming levels. I believe that I can help you reflect on those issues if they resonate with you and help you live a happier, more authentic and healthier life.

Janus is a company that specialises in drug and alcohol treatment that steers away from the language of addiction, sickness, illness, dependency and disease. Janus believes that this terminology can become disempowering, at times leaving the client feeling at a loss as to how to move forward. Janus uses it's own unique approach called: The Resonance Factor, that focuses on the relationship someone constructs with their substance/s of choice. Janus believes that in the same way someone can construct a relationship with substances - he or she can deconstruct that relationship. Our service is about creating change in the individual. It is designed for individuals that wish to stop using substances; wish to rebuild relationships; wish to re-engage with life - be it work, study and physical and emotional well-being. Janus will work with you to accomplish your goals, but you, the client, have to be at the forefront of your own treatment.

Most of us have automatic distorted thoughts which cause us to feel and behave in a certain way. In other words, when we keep thinking the same thoughts, we fire and wire the same circuits in our brain- meaning it become easier to automatically feel the same emotions. Then those emotions influence the behaviour choices we are going to demonstrate. Therefore, by frequent repetition of the same thoughts and behaviours, our emotional state of being will stay the same. By using cognitive- behavioural therapy techniques, we can identify our unhealthy thoughts which are underlying causes of negative emotions and behaviours.
