Hi and welcome. I know how daunting it can be to start therapy but we can work together to explore your current difficulties, looking at them through a new lens so you have greater insight and perspective. By building a warm & trusting relationship with you I can enable you to feel heard and understood, make sense of your feelings or maybe understand why you are not feeling, gain greater insight into your inner emotional world, accept those parts of yourself you may not like, help you to manage difficult people and teach you how to turn off your inner 'critical voice' so you become more forgiving and kinder to yourself and others.
I am an integrative counsellor which means I bring together a range of different theories and practices, tailoring my approach to suit the personality and life situation of each client. I also run corporate workshops, teach the Diploma in Integrative Counselling at a Counselling College and volunteer as a Loss and Bereavement Counsellor at a local hospice.
It can be difficult to open up to a stranger about painful and difficult emotions, but my clients say I am warm, down to earth, professional, supportive, curious and gently challenging! I won’t just sit there and listen without engaging with you. I will offer you a safe, confidential space where you can talk freely and honestly about what is troubling you.
