About me and my therapy practice
Maybe you're thinking about counselling because you're struggling with difficult life events, sadness, anxiety or overwhelming feelings? Or perhaps you just have a sense that there must be more to life than this? If this is you, I am so pleased you have found your way to my profile.
I offer a warm and accepting space in which to make sense of your emotions and experiences and find a way forward to a calmer, more fulfilling way of living.
I am a qualified, registered and experienced counsellor. In addition to 7 years in private practice, I have worked for two leading local counselling organisations and as a counsellor and a mental health practitioner within the NHS.
I work with people who are looking for a few sessions simply to develop better strategies for living, as well as with people who are seeking longer-term therapy to tackle deep psychological issues or work on their personal development. I also work with trainee counsellors.
I have been awarded accreditation by the Íø±¬ÃÅ - a status reserved for therapists who have demonstrated higher levels of experience and skill.
If you would like to find out more please contact do me by phone or email. I am happy to schedule a conversation to discuss your hopes and goals for therapy.
