Human Givens Counselling in TN1

The way that a human life unfolds can bring challenges, and these may become stressful or overwhelming at times for almost anyone, which prevents us from living happy and meaningful lives. Very often a few effective sessions of the solutions-based therapy I offer can make a positive shift on the route to a balanced life again. My aim is to get you back in control, and enjoying life again. I have a wide experience of life to share, in a family setting, in business and in work of all kinds. By working with you to regain those central human needs which have temporarily gone missing, improvements usually follow quickly.

My clients like the informal, friendly approach, tailored to their individual needs. My work is informed by the highly effective Human Givens framework, embodying thorough scientific but holistic understandings of how to help people make good changes. I've been a solution-focused psychotherapist/counsellor and clinical hypnotherapist for more than two decades. For the past four decades, I've also been a professional storyteller, chaired the Society for Storytelling in the 'nineties, often tell appropriate stories as part of therapy sessions with both adults and children.. Clients work with me to achieve specific goals.

Thank you for visiting my page and a warm welcome to my profile! I'm an experienced Psychotherapist and have a passion for helping people - that may be resolving a historic issue, working through a life change or crisis, overcoming something that is holding you back, or simply talking to someone neutral, perhaps or the first time. I've worked with a wide range of mental health difficulties both in clinical settings and private practice; these have included anxiety & depression, bereavement & loss, trauma & PTSD, low self-esteem, cancer recovery & diagnoses, workplace stress and life changes.

I have almost 25 years of experience in the private mental health and well-being sector helping adults, young people and older clients. I work a lot with clients who suffer with worry, anxiety, and anxiety related issues. I also work with alcohol addiction and codependency as well as clients who are suffering with depression or have had a bereavement.
