About me

I would describe myself as an empathic, yet honest and straight talking counsellor. I am hoping that I will be able to answer any questions you may have about me below, but if not, I am happy to talk through anything further you wish to know, so please do contact me.

I am a qualified counsellor, and my Diploma was gained over four years. During this time, I gained practical as well as theory based experience.

Going through this training means that I am a member of a counselling association, helping to ensure professionalism, and the safety of my client work.

I have additional training in certain areas mentioned below. I have supported clients with many different issues, including depression and anxiety, including Generalised Anxiety Disorder, relationship issues and general feelings of sadness. I also work alongside clients with Learning Difficulties.

We would work out of a secure and private space. Our work together would be confidential, and this would include any self-harm or suicidal tendencies. I would explain this in more detail in our initial session.

You have the freedom to disclose as little or as much as you like to me. I will not force you to speak or bully you into talking about certain issues. I will listen a lot throughout our sessions. I will offer you a place to express your thoughts and fears, together finding a way for you to move forward in dealing with whatever stresses and issues you may have.

Choosing the right counsellor for you is an important part of the process. I am sincere in my approach to counselling, offering direct and understanding support. I do understand how hard accessing the right support can be, and that this may be a worrying time for you. I would work to build a trusting relationship with truthful exchanges, leading to better self-awareness and confidence in the ability to be the real "you."

If you would like any further information about anything I've discussed, please take a look at my website, or feel free to contact me. I am available to talk through any concerns you have regarding counselling. My initial meeting would be free, so if you feel you need a book a session, please do feel you can come and speak to me.

Training, qualifications & experience

I am a fully qualified Person-centred Counsellor. This is an approach that deals with the way an individual sees themselves, not how they are seen by people around them. I would work to understand your experiences, seeing them as individual to you. I have gained the below qualifications in this approach;

  • Diploma - Therapeutic Counselling (CPCAB)
  • Certificate in Counselling Skills (CPCAB)

I have additional training in:

  • Bereavement
  • Mental Health in the workplace
  • GDPR for Practitioners
  • Working with Self Harm
  • Drug and Alcohol Awareness
  • Domestic Abuse
  • Transactional Analysis
  • Suicide
  • Trauma
  • Multi Agency Working
  • Safeguarding
  • Equality, Diversity & Rights
  • Person-centered Art Therapy
  • Mentoring students with additional learning needs

I regularly attend training in various subjects to keep up-to-date with new ideas, research and legislation. This additional work can be audited by The BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) ensuring I am working with you to the very best of my ability.

I am currently studying to counsel using the CBT method, and will complete this within 2019.

Experience:

I have my own private counselling practice, but have also volunteered at Kemp Hospice counselling bereaved clients, and have mentored survivors of domestic abuse through the charity The Jan Foundation. I currently also work with Worcester University mentoring students with additional learning needs.
