Family Therapy Counselling in Norwich

I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist specialising in physical health conditions. If you are finding aspects of life challenging due to living with a health condition or you are supporting a loved one living with a health condition, I may be able to support you. Starting therapy can feel rather daunting. This is why I offer a warm and compassionate approach in working with your difficulties together. I offer brief and targeted therapy focused on developing coping skills to enable you to live a meaningful life alongside the health condition. I can also support you with your wellbeing if you do not live with a health condition.

I am an experienced psychotherapeutic counsellor with a passion for changing lives. I will work with you in a unique partnership to enable sustainable changes and focus on the new you. Together we build a trusting and safe relationship to enable you to see an enhanced state of wellbeing.

Through talking therapies we work together to understand and alleviate suffering. I believe therapy is a non-judgemental space for us to learn to balance acceptance and change. As everyone is different, we will work together to find out a therapeutic approach that suits you. I publish in peer-reviewed journals and present in international conferences regularly. I enjoy research and strive to keep up with latest research evidence.

Like the lotus flower, we too have the ability to rise from the mud, bloom out of darkness and radiate into the world'. If you're looking to manage anxiety, improve self esteem or find a way through a difficult trauma, I can support you and will work at a pace that suits you. I value each persons individual experience. I am passionate about providing a compassionate, safe space to talk to explore your issues and work collaboratively to gain a shared understanding of your experience and support you in developing healthier, alternative coping strategies.

Whether you’re struggling with your mental health like anxiety, depression or feeling sad, or you’re working on an aspect of personal or professional development or understanding neurodivergence, whatever it is I’ll be guided by you as I support you through this process; I’m a firm believer that you are the expert on yourself. I work in a person-centred way, which is all about non-judgementally helping you to feel comfortable and safe enough to connect with your inner workings and to share and explore together to make some sense of them. I have availability on Wednesdays, and on Thursday afternoons.

Hello and thanks for visiting my page. A lot of my clients talk about how counselling allows them to talk something over with someone who is not directly affected by their issue, and who will offer a safe place in which to do it. It can provide people the chance to really reflect on how they, themselves are feeling, away from the life and expectations that they experience with others around them. Whatever your reason for reaching out, well done for making this step and I hope that I can be of help :)

What would it be like to feel less anxious? What would it be like to be supported in recovering from trauma? What if you could develop healthy boundaries and improve your relationships? Life can be a challenge and finding a counsellor can be hard. I am a warm, non-judgemental, down to earth counsellor. I work with adults who are struggling with different aspects of their lives. I have a particular interest and experience in working with anxiety, childhood trauma and identity.

In counselling we talk about psychological, emotional and behavioural problems that you wish to address. These conversations lead to better self-understanding, new ideas and an opportunity to shift perspective, ultimately leading to more contentment in life and more adaptive behaviours. These are therapeutic conversations which can console us or provoke us to change old unhelpful attitudes and behaviours. The work is done at an easy pace with no coercion. You are the expert on your own life and you set the agenda.

Life can be incredibly challenging at times, overwhelming even. Any one of us can be left feeling depleted, not good enough, or unable to cope alone, in any given circumstance. Being offered the opportunity to be heard without judgement, or criticism, along with the chance to experience Yourself as You are, rather than how You think You 'should' be, can be very powerful and incredibly beneficial.

I am a Person Centred counselor who works with adults, children and young people, offering 1-1 or group therapy. My approach is non-judgmental and I offer a secure, confidential and nurturing therapeutic space to help you through your difficulties at your own pace. I got into counselling because of having counselling myself so am aware of the difficulties facing finding the right counselor and what it's like having therapy. Even with this knowledge your process will be different and you will have your own sense of the pain you are experiencing. What I offer is my ability to help you walk through this pain with empathy and safety.

I am a qualified play therapist and child and parent relationship trainer. I work with children and their families as a therapist and coach. Parents get in touch for an array of reasons. Play therapy offers a safe space where children can process difficult emotions and experiences, build their confidence, reduce their anxiety and begin to recognise and regulate their emotions amongst many other things. CPRT offers parents an opportunity to learn the child centred skills play therapists use in the playroom which enable a parent to respond to behaviours rather than react and reduce conflict at home.

Are you fed up with waking up every morning with the feeling of dread, a churning in your stomach or a tightness in your chest? Are you frustrated with having thoughts going around in your mind, feeling like you're out of control? Are you finding yourself feeling sad and crying more than usual? Do you feel confused and often find yourself asking "what's wrong with me?" Maybe you are experiencing anxiety when faced with challenging situations and people? Counselling can help you to figure things out.

Hello, it's great you are here! I help both adults and children get back on track as soon as possible so that you can start enjoying the life you wish to. Human Givens Therapy is refreshing and very special as it is fast, effective and long lasting. When we meet we will work at a pace that suits you. I understand how life can seem so difficult and everything just feels too much. You will not be asked to talk at length about the past, we will only discuss what we need to so that you have a more positive mind and able to think more clearly, enabling you to make positive life changes. I really do look forward to helping you very soon!

I have been lucky enough in my career to date to work with some incredibly inspiring and brave individuals who have been at a crossroads in their life. Sometimes making change felt frightening or impossible due to past beliefs, stuck patterns of behaviour or limiting thought processes. Others were struggling to move on after devastation, illness, loss or identity crisis. I believe it is a privilege to be able to guide those in need at these times due to the courage and vulnerability they show. They are asking from the heart for a new beginning - to break from the past, not feel scared by the future and live truly in the present.

I offer a professional, confidential service for you to explore openly and safely. Contact me by telephone or email for a free telephone consultation where we can discuss your concerns.
