Counsellor, MBACP

I am a qualified integrative counsellor offering a confidential and understanding service for adults, children and young people who are facing a range of challenges and emotional difficulties. There are many reasons why an individual seeks counselling, and I understand that it can feel like a big decision where you may feel nervous, uncertain or vulnerable. My first step is to offer you a safe, non-judgemental space, where you will feel able to explore your own thoughts and feelings. This offers you space to understand the underlying feelings that can make you feel low, stuck, empty or overwhelmed.

I am an integrative counsellor. I work on a relationship based on trust, acceptance and non-judgement. From this foundation, using various therapeutic tools, I can help you to understand and question outmoded beliefs, conditions or rules that once served you but no longer fit. If you have an urning for change but are not sure where to start, counselling can help by acting as an agent or catalyst for change. Change can be scary, it can also be very empowering. When we let go of our old beliefs we open the way for new even exciting things to happen. Change doesn't have to be a slow or long process, it can be quick and effective.

It can be really hard when we feel that something is in the way to truly living life and experiencing joy. When pain from our past - or worries about the future - make it hard to enjoy the present. When we feel stuck in unhealthy patterns, and change feels so far away. When that feeling of “not being good enough” spreads through our days, actions, relationships. When we realise we aren’t expressing our authentic self, because it’s painful to do so. If you find yourself in any of these statements, I want you to know there is hope!

Thank you for taking the time to look. Congratulations life maybe not as it should be for you but you have decided to seek support. Life happens an what was the norm can suddenly change maybe something you deem minor ( the straw that broke the camels back) when you’ve previously dealt and coped with more major upsets. What can counselling offer ? The answer is yours to decide- Who do you want to be ? Where do you want to go ? What can you do about it . These are decisions for you to make not for me to control. At the beginning you might not know the answers and that is what the journeys about. Thank you again for looking :)
