Hello and thanks for stopping! I love what I do. 'Extremely easy to talk to'...'turned things around for me'...'helped save my life' being a few client comments. I'm 9 years qualified. During that time I've worked with serving police officers and civilian staff at Merseyside Police, those supported by Victim Support Homicide Service, VI Form students, and Occupational Health clients I know that being a counsellor is something that was always meant for me because I have an affinity with people and being able to be 'with' them. This and my life experience gives me the perfect grounding to be the best that I can be for my clients.

I am a qualified Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist with many years of experience working with people who have diverse needs, and from diverse cultural backgrounds. I posses high degree of empathy, compassion, understanding and creativity as well as cultural competences. This enhances my excellent knowledge of the principles of all counselling approaches that I subscribe to. I have proven track record of effective therapeutic outcomes with clients I have worked with in different settings. I have a strong sense of integrity when dealing with clients, a commitment to keeping information confidential when necessary in accordance with the BACP Ethical Framework.

My aim is to empower people who feel stuck to become freer by helping them to access and process their emotions and experiences through therapy and emotional freedom techniques (EFT). I have helped clients with a range of different issues including depression, stress, anxiety, self-worth, limiting beliefs, shame and guilt, confidence, loss and grief, trauma.

I offer both long term and short term individual therapy sessions for clients. I have experience of working with clients for short term work through to therapeutic relationships which have lasted over years. The length of each individual sessions is always 50 minutes, however the length of time we work together is always guided by the client and the goals that they wish to achieve in therapy.

We all experience difficulties in life if you’re feeling overwhelmed, lost, anxious or depressed, I can help. I provide a safe, accepting and non-judgemental space where you can talk about issues that you are facing. Events or triggers can cause difficult feelings. I can help you unpick, understand and manage them so that they don’t overwhelm you. I am currently working Face to Face, Telephone, FaceTime, WhatsApp Video or Skype/Zoom. I am a MBACP Accredited Counsellor and Psychotherapist. BACP is my governing body, I adhere to its ethical guidelines and hold myself to the highest professionals standards.

We all have times when we feel lost, alone or misunderstood. We want things to change but we don’t know how. Unsure of what we want we may talk to family or friends, but all they do is offer opinions. Sometimes we have no one to talk to and remain trapped in isolation unsure of own truth. This is where counselling can help.
