Counsellor Profile

My aim in counselling is to enable the individual to gain insight into issues which are causing them distress. The way I approach this is to give them an understanding of how the past influences the present. And to help them develop skills in the present which will allow them to make appropriate decisions to live more effectively. I believe that we all have the potential to alter our perceptions of the issues which are causing distress. I provide a safe space that allows the individual to be heard.
