Email meAbout me
I believe that counselling can help us live a more authentic, meaningful and less stressful life and this is what I like to help people to achieve.
I am a compassionate and creative counsellor experienced in helping people with a variety of issues including depression, anxiety, anger, panic, trauma, stress, relationship difficulties, identity struggles, bereavement and loss. Using different approaches - depending on your individual story - my counselling can help you:
• have a greater sense of self and purpose
• improve confidence and sense of self-worth
• feel a greater sense of freedom and autonomy in your life
• have more healthy and congruent relationships
• access and express your feelings
• reach important life goals
• improve mind-body connection
• manage anger
• heal from trauma and move on in life
As I am an Integrative Counsellor it means that I can use lots of different methods to help you. Here is my style of counselling in a nutshell:
• I believe that the answers are within you so I will support you to find them
• I work in a holistic way to enable greater communication between body and mind
• I work in both the here-and-now and the past, including childhood, as I believe that all our experiences shape us
• I can help you understand and work on your relationship patterns
• If you are creative I can bring creativity into the counselling room including working with stories, objects and art.
My life coaching qualifications also mean I can offer very goal focused therapy if this is something you are interested in.
Practicalities
I offer both long term and short-term counselling in Oxford (OX4) and Banbury (OX16). Each session lasts 50 minutes and they are weekly. I offer both daytime and evening sessions, depending on availability. Telephone and Skype counselling are also offered, if that is your preference.
Taking the next step
I understand that starting counselling can be tough. I am therefore happy to have a no-obligation chat via phone or email to give you a chance to ask any questions you may have. The reduced cost for the first session gives you a chance to see if my counselling might be right for you. If, for any reason, I am not the best match, I can offer alternative suggestions.
Training, qualifications & experience
As a fully qualified integrative counsellor (CPCAB Dip Therapeutic Counselling) and a registered member of the BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy), I adhere to an ethical framework, which promotes safe, effective counselling.
I have experience of working in a general counselling service, with young people and with survivors of abuse.
