Counselling in RH1

I work with people who are struggling with different life situations such as addictive behaviours, fertility concerns, alcoholism, chronic illness, depression, anxiety, miscarriage and bereavement and many more. I help you to empower and resource yourself so that change feels possible. I am here to listen and encourage you to become more attuned to your inner needs, providing you with greater freedom of choice and creativity. I am passionate about providing a safe space where you feel comfortable and heard.

I offer play therapy sessions for individuals or groups, with sessions tailored to helping overcome trauma, abuse, low self esteem and helping improve emotional regulation.

I am a fully qualified psychotherapist. I have gained experience working closely with depression, anxiety and relationship issues in the NHS as well as other long-term counselling services. The therapeutic relationship and the openness between us is an important part of the process and I encourage this in the space we share. The therapeutic journey is one we will be going on together. I will be supporting you with no judgement, empathy and understanding in this journey where I walk beside you. The aim for me is to be able to help you understand your thoughts and feelings as well as support you to find your own meaning and answers.

When life stresses become all consuming you can feel vulnerable, lost or frustrated. Talking it through with a trusted, non-biased counsellor is an opportunity for you to feel less overwhelmed, gain awareness of what is going on for you, move forward and gain a sense of control in your life. It could be that your lifestyle is stressful, work, family or financial pressures. You may have suffered trauma or loss that you are struggling to cope with or experiencing relationship difficulties. There a million different reasons where a counsellor can help, you don't need to feel alone in whatever you are facing.

I have worked with young people all my life, as a teacher and now as a psychotherapist. It's not easy being a young person today with so many expectations, choices to make and fears for the future. It can often feel that no one understands. Sometimes worries can stop you reaching your potential in school or work. Maybe you're worried about your parents, friends, leaving home, starting a new job, etc. Or perhaps you're experiencing the physical and emotional changes of adolescence and feel life is out of control. Perhaps you've self-harmed and feel scared to tell someone. Maybe you'd just like to talk to someone confidentially.

Hi, I am a Clinical Psychologist with a passion for supporting individuals and their families. I understand that deciding to seek psychological support for the challenges life brings can be daunting. That’s why I aim to create a safe, non-judgemental and compassionate space for individuals to explore their difficulties and goals in therapy. I hope to work collaboratively with you and use my training in various evidence-based therapies to tailor sessions to your needs.

Life is a challenge, at times we are woken up to the impact of emotional and psychological stress on our personal and professional lives which can suddenly hit us or, creep upon us in the cold light of day. I can help you to explore and take action to cope with those feelings of anxiety, depression, anger, stress and self-esteem. My experience with parenting issues, bullying or childhood sexual abuse recognises the challenges this presents to live authentically and experience genuine relationships lifting the cloud of despair. Together we can explore, identify goals to transform and help you live your life more successfully.

As a qualified Play Therapist I work with school aged children, providing a safe supportive non-judgmental space to facilitate child-led play, using a toolkit including a sand tray, musical instruments and creative art materials. Children can often express and explore their feelings through play more naturally than through language. Our sessions enable clients to work through a range of difficulties including conflicts with friends, difficulties at school, family changes or bereavement; to begin to recognise and regulate their emotions, reduce anxiety, build self-esteem and confidence to find their own resolutions and way forward.

Most people at some point in their lives will struggle with painful feelings or may feel overwhelmed by past or present experiences. These can make us feel lost, anxious, confused, helpless, distressed or angry, sometimes without us knowing why. Counselling is also not just for supporting people through a crisis. Many people come to counselling to explore and get a better understanding of themselves and their lives. Whatever you are experiencing, it can be difficult to explain how we feel to the people who are closest to us. Sometimes it is easier to talk to someone who is separate from your everyday life.
