Counsellor ProfileFinding the right counsellor may feel like a very daunting prospect. I hope that I can help make the process a little easier for you.Welcome to my profile. I am a qualified psychotherapist and counsellor with over 12 years experience. I work one to one with adults and with couples. People consider having counselling for a variety of reasons; it could be due to depression, bereavement, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem as well as many other issues. How can counselling help? For many people counselling is an opportunity (often for the first time) to talk about and explore issues in a safe and non-judgemental space. Building a professional relationship with the right counsellor can be very rewarding and lead to greater self awareness. HOW I WORK I work in a very individual way with each client, taking into account their personal circumstances. I offer a safe and supportive space in which the client will feel enabled to explore and gain a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationships with others. I offer two distinct types of counselling: 1. Short-term solution focused counselling You may initially consider ‘short term solution focused counselling’, as this can be for a fixed number of sessions, usually between 6 and 12. In these sessions the emphasis will be placed upon the importance of the present and the future, as opposed to the past. 2. Long-term psychotherapy A psychodynamic approach is generally more appropriate in long term psychotherapy. Working psychodynamically places much importance on how the past may influence the present, and how, in turn, patterns of behaviour from the past may manifest in all current relationships. In order to decide which type of counselling is right for you I offer an introductory session. This is an opportunity for you to ask questions and to discuss what you would like to gain from counselling. Please look at my website for more detailed information. Training, Qualifications & Experience (more info)I qualified with a British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) Accredited Diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling and Psychotherapy in 1996.
