Counselling in HA1

I am a qualified psychotherapist registered with the BACP. I have extensive experience seeing a broad range of psychotherapy patients in the NHS where I have worked with issues including trauma, depression, anxiety, abuse and personality disorders. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, instability, addictions or a lack of meaning and purpose then psychotherapy could be of real value. It is an opportunity to have conversations and experiences that I don’t believe we can have anywhere else.

Sometimes life gets in the way and we need to pause and get a deeper understanding to be able to grow. Engaging with psychotherapy can help gain insight and clear one’s mind to make the appropriate decisions. Psychotherapy is a journey that can be hard at times but its long term benefits are worth the effort.

You can book a consultation to discuss your issues and current dilemmas. I provide open ended and time-limited therapy in a confidential environment.

Maybe you feel numb and detached from life and everything seems to be foggy like your watching life through a glass window? Maybe you work so hard not to be critically depressed all the time, that it has turned into a full time job with no energy for anything else. The insight obtained in therapy, will help you to better identify your needs and will give you a greater freedom and maturity when responding to difficult situations and indeed, everyday life. I am helping individuals to unravel, experience and understand their true, deep-rooted feelings in order to resolve them in safe and contained environment.

My aim to work with the clients is to explore their own strengths, abilities as well to acknowledge the feelings and thoughts they might be going through.

Person Centred counselling is client led, my role is to provide empathy, transparency and a non judgemental environment, by focusing on the 'here and now' and the feelings you experience, clarity and become increasingly self aware. Analytical hypnotherapy uses relaxation and visualisation to assist you in looking at past trauma and unresolved conflicts. In a relaxed state you are able to work subconsciously to investigate and resolve past issues, irrational thinking, eliminating negative habits and behaviour, enabling healing to occur.

I offer a supportive, confidential and friendly service to individuals, couples and families. You may wish to address a particular issue, or perhaps you are considering counselling because of a feeling that all is not well. Life brings various challenges. Our physical and psychological well being is affected by traumatic events, bullying, abuse, bereavement, family tensions, relationships and more. Sometimes we find ways of coping which also cause problems, examples are self-harm and addictions. I provide a non-judgmental space for whatever you wish to explore and address including anxiety, depression and emotional distress.

I am an experienced and qualified psychotherapist working with individual adults. I work from an analytic perspective - our experience of the past, both conscious and unconscious influences our present. Feelings of depression, anxiety or a lack of direction or meaning in life need to be understood in this broader context. By looking at our whole life we can uncover who we really are and where we wish to go. I offer a safe space where troublesome, dark and difficult feelings can be examined and explored - by bringing them into the light we open up the possibility of facing and understanding them.
