I am a qualified Holistic and Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist. I work with clients collaboratively, with empathy and without judgement. I provide a safe space where we can explore, with open curiosity, the issues that have led you to bravely seek counselling. I believe that all people have the wise and wonderful resources they need within, from where healing and harmony can come. Therapy can provide an opportunity to access these inner resources, from where you can begin to find healing, ease of being, and develop new ways of thinking, being and living.
I have a special interest in working with people with long term mental and/or physical health issues towards a more happy, meaningful and fulfilling life. This may include identifying and exploring your physical, emotional, social and educational/working well-being and needs. This will depend on what is important to you and the circumstances of your life.
I draw from my own lived experience of anxiety, depression and chronic illness, along with my previous experience of working in mental health recovery education and my background in social care. Feel free to get in touch and arrange a free 20 minute consult.
