About me

Working as a person-centred counsellor, it is my aim to provide a safe, supportive and confidential environment in which you can talk about anything that may be troubling you.

I work with many issues including:

• anxiety
• depression
• panic attacks
• stress
• relationship breakdown
• infertility
• ageing
• suicidal thoughts, to name a few.

What is counselling and how does it help?
Life isn't always easy. In fact sometimes it is downright difficult. And when things get tough, it can seem impossible to talk to family and friends without feeling judged or that everyone is telling you what they think you should or shouldn't do. However, talking might be exactly what you need to do to help make sense of your thoughts and feelings.

Talking about and exploring your feelings can help you to understand them. You are then in a position to  learn to accept the things that cannot be changed and to find ways to move forward with the things that you do have control over. The way I work is not to offer advice, rather I work with you to help you to find your own way forward.

What happens next?
During the first few sessions of counselling I work on building a relationship with my client, which I believe is key to the development of trust. Once a trusting relationship exists, clients start to feel secure and therefore able to talk about and explore what they are feeling.

I offer both long- and short-term counselling from my dedicated counselling room at my home in Belmesthorpe, just outside Stamford. Sometimes just a few sessions might be all that are needed to help you work through a problem, in other instances long-term work may be the answer to helping you resolve the issues that are affecting your life.
