Well done for taking the first step to accessing support and alleviating some of the distress you are feeling.

Sometimes we feel we are not happy in the life that we are living and coming to terms with it or making a change can feel like an insurmountable task. Or we endure a loss that leaves us feeling utterly devastated; the breakdown of a friendship, the demise of a marriage, the death of a significant person, a parental or sibling estrangement. You may not even know what is wrong but you have an innate sense that your anxiety and low mood need your attention. That the sadness and loneliness you are experiencing is overwhelming and you want to reach out to find some happiness. But we can lose our sense of perspective at such times.

I am an experienced conscientious and caring counsellor with over 20 years of experience. I am trained in the person-centred approach and over the years have developed a pluralistic approach. This approach recognises that different approaches work for different clients at different times and will discuss and agree the approach I use. I have experience of working with adults and young people who have been impacted by a range of emotional issues and am skilled in working with attachment, trauma, abuse and relational difficulties.

We all need someone to talk to, and to be heard. I provide counselling to individuals in a safe, relaxed environment where we explore any issues you bring to the session together. My counselling experience is very diverse and I have supported a range of clients in various settings. I follow a person centred approach being very client focused, with the ability to adapt to other counselling models, which will be unique to each person.

Taking the first step towards counselling can be daunting, but my approach will be compassionate, friendly and supportive. We will work together to identify and resolve your issues in a safe and confidential environment, at a pace that is right for you. Through therapy I can help with a range of issues from anxiety to panic disorder, depression to anger management. As a member of the British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP), I will always work with you ethically and confidentially. So, if you are looking for a therapist in the Walsall or Wolverhampton (Willenhall) areas in the West Midlands, please get in touch.

I offer a confidential, warm and supportive environment, so that you may feel comfortable enough to explore what has brought you to counselling. Together we work, at your pace, with what is informing your emotions and responses so that awareness, understanding and change may happen. Conflict within ourselves or in a relationship with others can leave us with a lack of clarity, feeling confused, sometimes anxious and depressed. Loss can leave us overwhelmed. Working with our past and present experiences can enable us to live our life in an authentic and fulfilling way, one which is right for us and a new way of being can be found.

I have years of experience assisting individuals and families in navigating life's complexities and challenges. My areas of expertise include conflict, depression, trauma, and relationship issues. Whether you're seeking marriage guidance, dealing with family conflict, or looking for a safe space to lifes challenges and struggles. Look no further.

I completed my first degree in the UK and returned to Hong Kong for further study. I grained my Masters of Arts in Professional Counseling in USA. Moved to the UK three years ago to continue my practice. I believe clients know the best of their own situation, as a therapist, my responsibility is provide a safe and nonjudgmental environment for them to look for the solutions or see things in different prospective, by accompanying and encouraging them when they needed it.

I believe that all therapy is very personal and has to fit with you, therefore my main focus is always you and your journey. This means that I want to provide a safe and accepting environment where we can work together to bring about the changes you want to make. I have had my own counselling journey through the years and know how the counselling experience supported me. So, some years ago I decided to pay it forward. I bring knowledge, expertise and experience from holding a BA Honours degree in Psychology and a Professional diploma in Psychotherapeutic counselling practice, all I ask is you bring the person you know best. You.

I am a registered Paediatric Nurse (RSCN / NMC) and Registered school nurse (SCPHN/ NMC) and registered CBT Therapist (BABCP) as well as additional skills in coaching. I have worked for over 20 years with young people and adults in Health, Social Care and Education. I have worked across urban and rural areas in culturally diverse communities. I have worked with young people and adults who have experienced adverse environments affecting child development and functioning as an adult. I am supportive, compassionate and empathetic, for the times in your live that you need guidance, as "YOU MATTER". Listening to your holistic needs.

At times life can be challenging and can sometimes feel overwhelming. Finding yourself looking at counsellors it seems you have already made the decision that things need to change. I understand how difficult this first step can be and the courage needed to take the plunge to make that call and ask for help. I can offer you a warm and caring space where you will be supported whilst you start to look at the issues that are troubling you and together we can unravel the emotions and confusion that is holding you back from living a happy and fulfilled life.

We all have times in our lives when, for whatever reason, we are struggling on a personal level. No one needs to suffer alone and talking therapy is a tool that you should find to be most beneficial, not only during such difficult times but also to help you move to a happier, more contented place within yourself. By simply sharing our thoughts and feelings with someone who has a open ear and is willing to be there with you on your journey can help greatly. Enabling you to feel heard, understood and also help you tap into your strengths.

Counselling is about making changes in order to help enable better ways of coping and create positive change. I am a fully qualified therapist providing a confidential, empathic and non-judgemental space to explore your experiences and feelings at your own pace. I have experience helping clients with a wide variety of difficulties and concerns including anxiety and panic, depression, stress, shame, bereavement, low self-esteem, self-harm, trauma, and emotional difficulties. Prior to being a therapist, I worked as a teacher in Secondary Schools.
