Thursday 8am-2pm

I've been a practising counsellor since 2005 and have a background in mental health and psychology. I am trained in Integrative Counselling (Person-centred, Psychodynamic and CBT). I strongly draw on Person- Centred and Psychodynamic approaches and a "one size fits all" approach is never used. 

I  have completed further qualifications to Masters level and regularly attend workshops to develop  my skills.

Sometimes we may know what is painful and difficult in our lives, but sometimes we only know we are living with a feeling of unhappiness and discontent.

You are unique and you are an individual. Sometimes a person wants to tell their story and be listened to, sometimes they may need to make sense of what has happened to them. Sometimes people need to speak the unspeakable.

Whatever the reason for seeking therapy, you are the important one in the therapy room. you deserve to have a space to be heard. You deserve to have a space where there is no judgement, only acceptance of who you are and what you express.

There is no shame in being human.

Making the decision to talk to someone about your struggles can feel daunting. You are more than welcome to reach out and have an initial chat over the telephone before making a decision to start therapy.

Counselling is done at your pace- I do not force anyone to disclose or share anything that they are not ready to. The first session with myself is often for you to see how you feel with myself and whether I am the right counsellor for you.
