Profile
I am a qualified counsellor trained at post graduate level in Therapeutic Counselling.
A member of BACP - (The British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). Working in private practice in Norfolk / Cambridgeshire . Clients come to see me from Kings Lynn, Downham Market, Marham , Wisbech and surrounding areas.
How might Counselling help ?
Coming along to counselling may be helpful if you feel you might need a confidential space and time to talk at your own pace, about your problems or whatever is worrying you. Counselling can provide an opportunity for you to express your feelings in a place where there is safety and support to help to look at what these feelings may be about .
About Me
The core of my working life has always been supporting others in a helping capacity this has left me with a valuable understanding of how healing just being heard can be.
It's this understanding that lead me to my work as a counsellor and my wish to further develop my work as a therapist.
I have a special interest in attachments the need to belong to feel loved and valued. I have helped others to explore what happens when things go wrong with those we once felt close to, both in the past and the present.
First Meeting
During our first initial meeting I offer to explain how I work and invite you to tell me as much as you wish about what is troubling you , to see if I can help you.
Coming along to this meeting does not mean you are committing yourself to counselling not at all, it's more about an opportunity for us to meet for me to listen to how things are for you and see if I feel I may be able to help and if we can work together.
If you have any questions about counselling please don't hesitate to e mail or call and I will do my best to assist were I can.
