Email meAbout me
I offer a welcoming and confidential environment where you can be yourself. Life can be hard - it can help to share painful, difficult or confusing feelings with someone who will really listen. Together we can explore possible unhelpful patterns of behaviour and begin to make some sense of what is going on for you. Becoming more aware can help you to consider your choices as together we explore your next steps.
A qualified and experienced practitioner, I specialise in working with individuals. In addition I offer couple counselling. The number of sessions you will benefit from depends on what brings you to counselling. We can work in either an open-ended way or to a fixed number of sessions, whatever suits you best.
