Counselling in Otterbourne

My work is with children, young people and young adults who are finding it difficult to manage difficulties relating to mood, anxiety, educational challenges, exam anxiety, transitions between school and university, and both expected and unexpected life changes. In addition to this, I have specialist skills and experience in working with children, young people and adults on the autism spectrum (some of whom may also have associated learning disabilities). I also have significant experience working with looked after children, both within fostering and residential care settings.

I have over 10 years counselling. I am trained in Gestalt therapy and Advanced CBT. I offer face to face and online sessions. If you are experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, loss, bereavement, diagnosis, or other life challenges, counselling can give you the confidential space, tools and support to explore these issues. I am dynamic and non-judgemental and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. I am a lecturer in Counselling and have extensive experience of working with young people. I offer a safe secure counselling room in the Eastleigh area.

Deciding to start therapy is an important step in life. I am pleased to have the opportunity to work with a diverse range of clients aged 16 and above in helping them with this step. In my approach, I place a strong emphasis on the power of empathy, believing that it forms the foundation of a trusting therapeutic relationship. This trust, in turn, empowers clients, granting them the autonomy to harness their innate skills and strengths to embark on their personal journey of growth and self-development. It's my belief that by nurturing this sense of empowerment and self-discovery, we can work together to achieve lasting change.

The last few years have been a real strain for many people. Perhaps you don't feel right, your relationships might be suffering, you may feel exhausted from trying to maintain a positive side. Maybe you keep doing the same things over and over but cannot seem to break the cycle. I believe we all have the capacity to help ourselves through much of this but, in an increasingly complex and busy life where we are ‘always on’, there often feels like there's little time available to focus on 'me'. Counselling gives you the valuable space and time to find your way in a supported and non-judgmental environment.
