"Are you finding life hard work, struggling with a low mood or losing your temper at the smallest of things? Do you feel out of control and that life is not what it's meant to be? Then maybe I can help. If you'd like to feel more in control, less overwhelmed or anxious then talking therapies can really help. Many of my clients come to me exhausted from trying to take control of their life, struggling to manage their anger and feeling worthless. After a few sessions most clients notice that life begins to feel less stressful, their relationships start to improve and the joy of living begins to return. "

"Hello, and a warm welcome to my profile. Life’s journey can be wonderful, but it isn’t always an easy road – there are curves to navigate, bumps to manage and sometimes the road is closed; we can find ourselves in places that we could never predict. It is during these challenging times where you may experience a range of emotions, some might seem quite overwhelming. Talking to those around us, can be useful. However, we may not want to hear what they 'think' we 'should' do, or for those who we have confided in, asking 'how are you getting on?' Sometimes we just want to be heard in a confidential, non-judgmental space. "

"As I sit and write this I wonder if these are the right words. We all have good days and bad days, good weeks and bad weeks. Sometimes those days need to be talked about so we can make sense of them. When we have a broken leg or a chest infection we treat it with a plaster cast or antibiotics, when we have worries, trauma, depression, any mental health issues it is more than OK to treat it with psychotherapy and counselling. It is the right things to take time to heal our minds as well as our bodies. Here at Wright Minds we'll help you to do just that."

"Have you experienced a loss in your life? Maybe you've had a bereavement. Or perhaps you've lost a job, relationship, or sense of identity. Loss can bring many difficult and confusing emotions. Talking to someone outside your family or friendship group can really help. However, It can be difficult opening up to someone new, and it's important you find the right person for you. Someone you can trust, who will try hard to understand what you are going through. "

"So, what has led you here? Maybe you are finding yourself struggling with your emotions at the moment. Maybe this is because of a particular situation that you are currently experiencing, or have experienced in the past and it’s still affecting you. Maybe you are not even aware of what’s making you feel this way. "

"Finding the therapist that is right for you might like a feel daunting prospect, especially at a time when you may be feeling vulnerable or uncertain, perhaps at a crossroads in your life. This is not unusual, whether this is the first time you have sought therapy or have taken therapy in the past. Sometimes we need help to overcome conflicts and blocks in our life that are confusing or difficult . I understand that you are a unique and complex individual, with many facets and aspects that make you who you are, which impact on how you experience yourself, and how you have had to adapt to face life's struggles."

"

"When things are troubling you and you're feeling anxious and stressed, talking with friends only goes so far. In their desire to help, they shower you with advice, try to cheer you up and distract you. But when distraction is no longer an option and you want or need to face what it is that is so troubling you, then I am here for you. I have been in private practice for over 20 years, as well as having worked in the NHS and Nightingale hospital, so have seen many people from teenagers to the elderly of different cultural backgrounds and sexual orientations. I can help you explore & understand yourself in a new and constructive way."

"Couple/Indiv/ EMDR.Therapist. There is often constant pressure in today's society, which can cause us to feel low, unhappy, anxious,overwhelmed, judged, or stressed. Life events such as loss, financial problems, devoice, retirement, long term illness, work etc. add to that pressure. This can affect our behaviour causing us to withdraw, isolate ourselves or become angry and lash out. These unhealthy behaviours and coping strategies can affect our relationships. Unresolved issues from our past can also resurface particularly trauma. I can help you feel more confident in your ability to cope and gain a more positive sense of self."

"To try to bring myself into my client's world I find something I can connect with and to do this I use my own experience of life. I seek to understand the personal meaning for my client, of their words and actions so I have no image of an ideal client as each one brings their own unique world view. If I were to imagine a client who has thanked me for my help, they would have been seeking help with their family relationships. This client would have 'lost' their way with communication of their own feelings and needs and may need to identify these first. They may not know what they want and that is what I explore with them."

I also work with children and young people affected by trauma and sexual abuse, especially trained by Barnados. Some of the work I do is with Barnados."

I am also a multi award winning drug & alcohol practitioner, bereavement specialist and have an advanced certificate in couples counselling.

The world drains of colour and it might feel as if no one understands the depth of your pain and confusion despite them trying.
