Profile

As an Integrative counsellor I use a variety of different approaches which can help you through your journey.  The idea of using these approaches is to help build  a trusting, comfortable and safe environment so that we can discuss and explore how life is for you, how you feel about things and how you react during certain situations.  The main advantage of being an Integrative counsellor as opposed to other forms of therapy is, that I am able to mix and match all of my skills and knowledge to tailor counselling sessions for you and your needs.  Together we can work to help you find the best solutions for you.

I counsel clients who are over the age of 16, and  have worked with clients from a variety of backgrounds with many different issues, these include:-
Bereavement
Anger management                      
Anxiety                             
Stress
Low Self Esteem
Low Self Confidence
Depression
Work related issues
Different types of abuse
Bullying                               

In an ideal world we would all have someone to talk to within our family or support network, but sometimes  we don't feel that we can because we don't want to hurt their feelings or face their reactions.  Counselling fills this gap and is a way to express how you really think and feel in a respectful, warm, safe, non-judgemental environment, with someone who is not emotionally attached. 

There are many types of counselling but the main aim is always to work with you and not against you.  In other words, as a counsellor I always bear in mind that this is your counselling, and I will always respect your choices.

Therapies Offered

Fees

Free - 30 minute initial consultation, giving us the opportunity to meet and discuss your expectations

I also offer telephone and email counselling:

£25 per telephone session - the timescale for each session is 50 minutes
