Psychodynamic Counselling in NP25

I'm a BACP registered counsellor and integrative psychotherapist based in Monmouth, South Wales. I provide a safe and relaxed atmosphere where whatever worries or problems you may have can be explored. As well as addressing specific issues that are concerning you, regular sessions with me can help you gain clarity around confusing patterns in your life, a greater understanding of what triggers strong emotion in you and a new-found sense of freedom and choice around how you would like your life to be.

I have a special interest in intergenerational and relational trauma. This includes working with mothers to heal their own 'mother wound,' and also working with men on internalised messages of masculinity, identity and intimacy.

I pride myself on offering my clients a safe place to explore their concerns. I have a warm and empathic approach to my work. I work on empowering that person with the awareness and inner strength to help them move forward to a better place emotionally.

Are you finding the uncertainty of life overwhelming and the constant pressures on impacting your emotional, psychological and physical wellbeing? I provide a space and my expertise to help explore with you what you want to work on in your life, big or small, such as your relationships, your work/life balance, your goals, all are valued, whatever you challenges you are facing I want to help you overcome these. I appreciate coming to therapy can be daunting but I hope to relieve that fear and empower and support you to find your truth, heal the pain and live your best life through the use of evidence based therapies.

Life can be overwhelming and sometimes even exhausting, but I’m here to guide you through any obstacles you may face. I offer compassionate, non-judgmental and confidential counselling in a private setting in both Gloucester and Monmouth.

Counselling can be a scary process; our counsellors are skilled at helping you relax so you can talk about the problems you are having at the moment. We will offer you a safe, non-judgemental space to explore the problems you are facing and ways to help you move forward away from them. Within our team we can offer you a wide range of different counselling styles to help you get back on track as soon as possible and away from any emotional distress you have been feeling.

At certain life stages we may experience anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, feelings of a loss or meaningless, loss of direction or purpose, or difficulty with building meaningful relationships. I will work with you to identify what these symptoms mean and how they may be pointing you to discover a deeper sense of self. My approach is integrative and allows for self-discovery. My methodology offers focus, allowing you to explore and connect to a truer sense of who you are. I encourage you to develop a sense of curiosity to understand yourself more profoundly. We will work together, to support your needs.

Everyone needs a little support from time to time. Perhaps you or someone you know feel that you ought to be able to manage your feelings, but are finding them too much at the moment. You may be feeling overwhelmed, sad, anxious, angry or confused. The demands of work, relationships, families, financial worries, or caring for someone can all make it difficult to cope. You may have experienced loss through bereavement, redundancy, or retirement, or you might be struggling with your sense of identity, self-confidence, health, or direction in home life or at work. You may feel that you are struggling with some other unique issue.

Depression, anxiety, abuse, low self-esteem, relationships, addiction, stress, and more. As a Integrative Counsellor with a psychology and wellbeing background I have a wide perspective on health and wellbeing and value diversity and you as an individual. I will work to understand your unique way of experiencing the world and adapt to the different types of issues you bring to counselling using different approaches. I work face to face and also online and offer short and long term therapy. I provide an environment which is supportive, valuing, safe and confidential for you to talk about what you are finding difficult.

My private practice is set in the heart of the beautiful Wye Valley, providing that much needed relaxing calm safe space. As a psychotherapist and Supervisor who has worked with trauma for over 17 years I am mainly focusing my work on those who have experienced narcissistic abuse. Please email me to book an appointment. I look forward to working with you.
