Profile
I will offer you caring, compassionate, confidential counselling. People choose to see a counsellor for many reasons. You may want help to explore current difficulties in your life, or you may be struggling with issues from the past.
I will aim to establish a safe, supporting relationship with you, allowing you the space to explore and address your concerns. I will understand your world as you see it, without offering you advice. I will respect your decisions in a non judgemental way.
