Why would you talk to me?
I have life experience and professional training that enables me to understand and support you with any struggles you are facing.
I have a kind nature offering care and attention to your needs. I will support you on every step of your journey exploring thoughts feelings and emotions and together we will find a positive and healthy way forward.
Who do I work with?
I have extensive experience and success working therapeutically with both Adults and Young People and currently I work with individuals from 15 years and older.
Am I professionally trained and what does that mean?
I have spent many years training to become a professional counsellor and also a supervisor.
I have engaged in specific courses that enable me to work with a range of different mental health problems and life issues. I also hold responsibility for supervising other counsellors practice.
I have chosen not to list every condition I can help with, but you can place your confidence in me that I will engage with you on a level that will offer you hope and the opportunity of change.
Why do people come for counselling?
There is no one answer to this question, people come for counselling for a variety of reasons, so if you are reading this you are not alone.
Some of the common reasons people may come for counselling can include
feeling sad
struggling with a generalised anxiety disorder
Be affected by a panic disorder
Have relationship problems
Have a phobia that gets in the way of leading a healthy life
People may feel they need help managing depression or a new challenge in their life.
Really counselling is a space set aside for the exploration of feelings and can be used to create a positive and healthier life.
Where can you see me?
I currently work from a clinic in fleet, the location is central.
