Profile

I am a qualified counsellor practicing in and around Lincoln.  As a member of the BACP, I adhere to their values and principles.

Our counselling sessions will be confidential.

As a counsellor, I aim to help people gain a better understanding of their anxieties, fears and worries and enable them to take control of their lives more confidently. Your worry may be something quite recent or something that has bothered you for many years - it makes no difference - both temporary and deep-seated problems can be tackled in counselling.

My approach to counselling combines person-centred skills with cognitive therapy.

Our first meeting will be free of charge, with no obligation for you to take up the option of counselling at the end of it.  At our first meeting, I will tell you more about what is involved and discuss the length and frequency of our sessions with you.  If you are happy to, you might like to say a little bit about what has brought you to see me.  I will give you honest feedback about if and how I can best help you.  If your issue is about something I am not experienced in then I will probably be able to refer you to a specialist in that area.
