Life can feel overwhelming when need someone to share your troubles with, or when you can’t see a way forward from the situation you are in. Those around you might assume you are fine, but inside you feel lost, anxious, angry or disconnected. I will do everything I can to understand why you feel like you do — to listen without judgment and to help you work out how to get where you want to be.

My direction towards self-development has exposed me to deep & wonderful values. I now understand that feelings don’t need to be avoided or feared, they just are. I know people are all inherently creative & given the right environment of empathy, non-judgmental & unconditional positive regard everyone can find their way.

Clients seek therapy for a variety of reasons and I believe that clients have resourced many options before entering the therapeutic relationship. It may be that you are experiencing low mood/depression, anxiety, responses to trauma, bereavement and other life events. Or it maybe that nothing specific stands out yet you know something is out of sync in your well-being. Therapy is a place where you can take space for “you”, catch up with yourself and explore what troubles you in a non-judgemental environment encouraging you to draw on your strengths and re-evaluate your life.

Hi I'm Alice, Does your anxiety or stress feel overwhelming and difficult to cope with? I specialise in helping clients to understand and manage their anxiety. Counselling empowers you and is life changing. I work with clients whose anxiety is a result of unresolved childhood issues, feeling' different', or have lost a sense of who they are. This impacts on relationships, self esteem, and health. I bring an experienced perspective to the difficulties clients have managing new situations or differences in culture, values, and beliefs. My clients express relief at releasing their shame, loss, or pain. As they heal, they move forward.
