If you're reading my profile then well done in taking the first step in looking for support. It’s a brave thing to do. You deserve to live the life you want. Is there something that is stopping you from living your life to the full? Perhaps you are feeling anxious, depressed, or lacking direction and motivation. Your life belongs to you, so let me help you take it back. I offer a safe & confidential space for you to share what has been going on for you. I will listen empathetically & attentively to you, & working together, we will identify how you would like your life to be different and identify goals to help you get there.
I use both Person-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) with my clients. CBT will help you to understand your thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and how these are all interlinked. By making changes to the way you think - and the things you do (your behaviour) can have a positive effect on how you feel.
I have experiencing working with children from 9+ as well as with adults, & am currently working with both of these groups. Please get in touch either by phone or email, so we can have an initial chat about what you are looking for. I will then explain how I work, and you will get a feel for if I am the right 'fit' for you.
