There are times in our lives when things just don’t feel right. We might be struggling to work out who we are and what we want or finding it hard to cope with life’s challenges – feeling stressed, unfulfilled or lonely. At other times we can be deeply affected by specific events and loss – perhaps the death of a loved one, relationship breakdown, redundancy or illness. What we experience can impact us in many ways, affecting our relationships and behaviour and bringing on painful feelings, including anger, sadness, vulnerability, guilt and shame, sometimes leaving us anxious and depressed. Having a counsellor to turn to can help.

Many of us struggle with our thoughts, our feelings, our behaviours, our life predicament at some time in our lives. Not knowing how to overcome our difficulties leaves us feeling alone, vulnerable, anxious, depressed, angry or overwhelmed with a combination of those feelings. Sometimes we are resilient enough to cope and having close friends or loved ones with whom we can share certainly helps us to be robust. Sometimes though it is with those very people that we cannot work through our feelings. This may be why you are visiting these pages and exploring the idea of counselling or psychotherapy to help.

It's not uncommon to feel like we should be able to cope with whatever life throws at us. When things get too much, it can take a lot of courage to ask for help. If you feel overwhelmed, or difficult feelings are impacting on the quality of your life, therapy can provide the support you need. Maybe you feel like you've been treading water for a while and realise that now is the right time to do something differently? Maybe you are struggling to keep your head above water and realise now is the time to reach for that buoyancy aid? Either way, asking for help is an act of self-care and one that make all the difference.

I am a fully qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor, with a diploma in Integrative Transpersonal Counselling, and a Registered Member of the BACP. I work in a very relational way with clients from all back grounds and with any issue they might need to bring. It's important to me that I can provide a safe space to be able to explore the past, present and future hopes, as well as what might be held unconsciously, through the mediums of dreams and imagery, bodily sensations and reflections. The aim is always to give the client the tools and understanding in order to live the life they want to the full.

My 20 years experience as an accredited counsellor adds a depth to my coaching that ensures that clients know that they are in a safe pair of hands. Clients from all walks of life work with me. Senior executives, both men and women. Lawyers and those in Human Resources. Business owners. Individuals seeking to improve and understand their thoughts and actions, who want to live in a more purposeful way. Those who feel out of kilter with their true selves and do not understand their core values. Life can be complex and having as safe space to make goals and find a new way forward can be life changing.

Deciding to see a Counsellor can be a difficult first step, especially if you have never had counselling before and are unsure how it works. It’s not always easy to talk about what is troubling you, to open-up about your thoughts, feelings and emotions. I offer a safe space where clients can explore the issues that made them reach out for help. I am an Integrative counsellor; I use a range of different counselling models. This allows me to work flexibly and creatively to each client’s needs. The main model I use is Humanistic, the idea being that everyone is an expert in their own lives and can grow, given the right support.

I work with adults and teenagers in Tunbridge Wells and the surrounding areas. My style of counselling is built using the foundation of the Humanistic approach. This uses my genuine, empathic, non-judgemental qualities to create a secure, supportive relationship with my clients. Within this safe framework, I am able to assist my clients in working through painful emotions, anxious or destructive behaviours, inner child healing, survival patterns and fears that cause blocks that keep us from living & experiencing life in a way that allows the happiness and serenity you deserve.

I offer counselling and psychotherapy services to young people aged 14 and over and adults of all ages. I work with people who are undergoing a difficult time, have experienced major loss or trauma, and those for whom the very business of living seems a constant uphill struggle. I am concerned to find out what it feels like to be you, how you feel and experience the world and how your strengths can be used to overcome your difficulties so that you can achieve the greater emotional stability you need in order to feel hopeful and to look forward to new experiences in life.

I am an experienced counsellor and a registered member of the BACP. I offer a confidential, safe and non-judgemental space in which you can explore whatever brings you to counselling. It could be that there have been things that have troubled you for some time and which you now feel ready to think about in more depth. Maybe recent events have caused you to feel like you need some help to cope. Or perhaps you just don’t feel right and would like some space to explore why that may be. Talking with a skilled, impartial counsellor can help you find the words to make sense of your experiences and find a way forward.

Are you feeling angry, anxious, overwhelmed or suffering from low mood? Has something recently happened to you that you need to talk about with someone who won’t judge but who can help you make sense of things? Perhaps you’ve had a traumatic or difficult experience that you need to talk over? Maybe you wake up each day feeling unfulfilled and have a sense that there must be more to life than this? It may be that you are experiencing something new, such as parenthood, which is bringing up uncomfortable memories of your past? Whatever the presenting concern, I'm here to help.

I provide therapeutic services for individuals, young people, as well as couples. I offer a safe and confidential space online and in Tunbridge Wells to work on a short or long term basis depending on your need. If you haven't had counselling before, the thought of talking to a stranger about something that's troubling you can seem frightening. You may have an idea of the changes you want to make, or simply be aware that you want something in your life to be different without being sure how to achieve this. I am qualified to practise Transactional Analysis psychotherapy and can support you to initiate the changes you seek to make.

People come to therapy for all sorts of reasons, sometimes in crisis, sometimes tired from carrying around the effects from their past and often exhausted from the pressures within their everyday lives. Whatever has brought you to a place where you are seeking help I believe that given a non-judgemental, safe space, in which to sift through everything, we all posess an inherent ability to heal. Deep down we know what is good for us and what isn't working for us and given the opportunity to peel off all of those defenses that we wrongly assume protect us from something, we have the potential to not only heal but to grow.

I work with you; your experiences, feelings, concerns, anxieties, challenges, hopes, and potential. My approach helps you to recognise when feelings are out of balance with experiences and make changes accordingly. My work aims to help you find a way that you can understand and use to navigate life's challenges through working relationally to better understand your own potential. Prior to qualifying as a counsellor I worked in executive and leadership positions helping me to understand the struggles and stress associated with a demanding and insecure workplace.
