About
Are you feeling anxious about work or a personal issue, or maybe you are struggling with a bereavement? Have you noticed that these negative feelings are getting in the way of you enjoying life? Maybe you get panic attacks and you just want them to stop. Perhaps you are worried about a test or something else. And you might be lacking confidence and struggling with relationships. You know something has to change. I would like to help. As a retired nurse, I'm professional, experienced and friendly. Contact me so you can get to know me and ask me questions. Free initial consultation. Reduced prices if you book more than one session.
I can offer you techniques to help you to de-stress, control your worry and feel more positive about life. I'm an integrative counsellor, although I often follow a Cognitive Behavioural (CBT) Approach. I listen. I don't judge you. Instead, I provide a safe and professional space to help you feel better. Face to face and some online counselling.
As I have met so many people struggling with stress and anxiety I know that you need to talk to someone who understands how you feel. I work full time from my offices in Bournemouth. I try to make things easier for you by providing day and some evening appointments. I also provide counselling on the telephone or via webcam for some people. Please contact me
