Íø±¬ÃÅ

My client focus is working with Adults and I have availability to offer in person and online, counselling weekdays and evenings with some Saturday work available on request

I am a  Íø±¬ÃÅ registered counsellor based in Cheltenham, offering on line and in person counselling for adults seeking understanding and support through times of change and disruption. 

My work is grounded in psychodynamic principles, which means we look together at how past experiences, often outside of awareness, shape your current emotions, relationships, and sense of self. 

I believe that meaningful change can happen through insight, empathy and the therapeutic relationship. Together  we can reflect on what might lie beneath current dilemmas, exploring what may be causing you difficulty, in order to  create space for new perspectives and change.

Issues I work with include;

Navigating Life transitions 

Retirement and shifting identity

Relationship difficulties

Anxiety and depression

low self-esteem

Grief,  Loss and bereavement

Emotional regulation

I came to counselling, later in my own life, after recognising how powerful it can be to have space to pause, reflect and understand the deeper stories that shape our lives. My practice is rooted in psychodynamic principles which explores how past experiences and unconscious patterns influence how we think, feel and relate in the here and now of our every day lives.

I offer a reflective, calm and confidential space. I am guided by curiosity rather than judgement.

 My approach is to help provide insight into recurring themes and patterns, allowing you to understand yourself and make choices that feel more aligned with acceptance and awareness.

I offer an initial 15 minute conversation by  phone to establish how best to work together. This initial session has no fee.

In our first session we will take time to explore your reason for counselling and why, most importantly, now.

 We will assess and agree some guidelines that will shape our work together and agree a time each week to meet.

Each session is 50 minutes and the fee will be agreed at our first face to face session
