Are you feeling overwhelmed with all the responsibility and demands from work, home or school/college? Do you wake up feeling anxious or struggle to sleep with so much going on in your head, it's hard to switch off? Or do you have low self esteem which is impacting your relationships at home and at work. 

Whether you’re a young person or an adult having someone to talk to in a confidential and understanding way might be the support you need. I am a friendly experienced therapist working online or over the phone. If you feel this is what you need right now I will be alongside you in order for you to regain control of your life by:

• talking about your issues without fear of being judged or criticised
• build more confidence in the choices you make and develop your own coping strategies that work for you
• help you to set your own boundaries so you have more space to live the way you want to, and to sleep better at night.

From my own personal experiences of feeling overwhelmed and dealing with losses in my life I understand how important having someone to talk to is, who is not directly involved. Having someone there who will listen patiently and empathically to help guide you through life's most difficult moments in order to feel more in control. 

I work with young people (13 years and over) and adults focusing on the person and their issues. This could also include building self awareness, looking at what's going on for you right now, changing unhelpful behaviours, making choices, life events such as loss and bereavement. This could also include looking into your past to see what impact your childhood may have had on the way you feel now, for example the impact of abuse/ bullying or not feeling you 'fit in' with society Whatever your need we can work together at your own pace.

I have worked for nearly 30 years teaching and working in education.  I understand the anxiety and demands of working in education and the impact it can have on oneself - physically and emotionally.

I work online and over the phone only.  This means you can see me from the comfort of your own space of safety.

I offer a free, no obligation 20 minute telephone call/online session to find out more about my counselling and for you to ask any questions and to get to know each other. I will then email/ give you a counselling contract to read and for you to think about whether counselling is for you at this time. There is no pressure, take time to think about whether you want to go ahead with it.

In our initial 50 minute session we spend some time talking about our counselling agreement - we discuss confidentiality, how many sessions you may want, what you should/shouldn't expect from a counsellor, fees and cancellations and what you hope to gain from counselling. Then it's up to you if you feel it would benefit you at this time- it's your choice.

Once you make that decision the rest of the sessions will be about whatever you want to talk about.

Wednesdays- Morning
