Email meAbout me
I understand all too well that there are occasions in our lives when life itself can become confusing and overwhelming. This can result in us struggling to cope and make sense of it all, which can impact on our own well-being, as well as our relationships and working life. Sometimes it can be really hard to imagine a way forward from your current difficulties and this is where counselling can help you gain an understanding and clarity on your situation.
Counselling and how I can help you
Counselling is a very personal and individual journey. It is built on a foundation of genuine understanding, trust, warmth, and support. The journey at times will be challenging as you explore and unravel your life experiences and difficulties.
My role is to help you explore and reflect on your thoughts, feelings and difficulties of these personal experiences from a professional perspective and in a safe and confidential environment.
I offer appointments at your convenience including evenings, at my practice in Leicester City Centre which is easily accessible by car, bus and train.
