Hello. Are you, or someone close to you, finding it difficult to cope or in need of support to make sense of emotions, thoughts, circumstances or patterns of behaviour? You’re not alone. Some life events can impact on how we feel and on our outlook. You may feel anxious, depressed, stuck or confused. This may seem overwhelming; we can work through this together. I offer compassion and understanding, giving you a safe space to gain insight and relief, without being judged. Greater contentment is achievable for you.
I aim for you to be at ease, listening as you explain, at your pace, what is going on for you. We will gently explore what impacts on how you feel and think, both past and present. As things become clearer you are likely to feel better able to cope and consider future steps. We can face this together, in your preferred way, no matter how difficult it seems.
I work from a private room in Leyland, Lancashire. There is wheelchair access. It's located on a bus route, with a train station a 20-minute walk away. Car parking is available. I also provide online/telephone counselling UK-wide. Take the first step towards a more contented future. Please reach out to book a private initial discussion or with any questions.

I work with your preferred approach. You may/may not wish to identify goals. You may wish to gain insight or acceptance, develop coping mechanisms, find solutions or determine direction. You may be struggling to make sense of your emotions, thinking or ways of doing things. Maybe you want to share something and feel truly heard, understood and valued. Or for you, it may be something else.
