About me

I provide counselling to adults and young people 16+yrs. Currently Daytime appointments Mons or Fri
As a Person Centred Counsellor and EMDR Therapist, I will work with you on whatever issues you bring to counselling, these might include things like anxiety, panic attacks, depression, relationship and family issues including separation and divorce, child and domestic abuse, addictions, low self esteem, bereavement, anger management or eating disorders. Sometimes people cannot name what is wrong, but just feel an emptiness.

I also offer Counselling Supervision to Counsellors and to those working in support services who require support that is additional to line management.
