Profile
I am a professionally qualified counsellor and member of the BACP with a number of years of experience in providing one-to-one therapeutic support for clients facing a variety of problems and difficulties.
Through my work with both staff and student clients at Cardiff University and with Cruse Bereavement Care, a leading bereavement support charity, my approach to counselling integrates a variety of therapeutic interventions (including solution-focussed, CBT , existential and person centred) to offer clients the opportunity to explore and resolve their problems in a warm, compassionate and non-judgemental environment.
As a member of the BACP I am bound by the organisation’s Ethical Framework which provides guidance on ethical practice, confidentiality, supervision and resolving client complaints.
Training, Qualifications & Experience
My BACP accredited counselling qualifications were obtained at the University of Leicester(Certificate in Contemporary Psychodynamic Counselling) and Cardiff & Vale College (Advanced Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling).
As a trained humanistic-existential counsellor my approach is underpinned by the uniquely human need to create meaning in our lives. How we create such meaning through our values and choices has an important impact on our sense of well-being and self-esteem, and as a consequence our experience of stress and anxiety and ability to cope. As we develop awareness together my approach supports clients to re-evaluate their priorities, personal strengths and other qualities to develop more personally satisfying and fulfilling ways to cope with life’s difficulties.
My experience in working with clients in both the voluntary and public sector means I am able to offer a variety of approaches to therapy that can be adapted to the needs of individual clients and the type of help they are seeking. Shorter-term therapy can be offered to clients who have a clear sense of the change they are seeking, by focussing therapy towards these goals. Whereas, more long term therapy can be offered to those seeking change through a deeper sense of self-awareness and self-acceptance.
