Profile
I am an accredited psychotherapist with 25 years' experience. I offer counselling and psychotherapy for individuals, couples and families.
You may be:
- feeling stuck or dissatisfied with your life
- depressed or anxious
- facing relationship or family difficulties
- experiencing particular symptoms or health problems such as addiction,

Counselling and psychotherapy offer a powerful and effective means of addressing these life difficulties.
