About me

Life can sometimes be stressful, challenging, and unfulfilling and this can deeply affect our emotional and physical well being. We can feel sad, angry or scared in a way that makes life and relationships seem difficult or impossible. It can be helpful then to seek support. I would like to help you through those difficult moments we all experience in life.

I am an experienced and fully qualified integrative humanistic counsellor who works from a person centred approach and draws from both gestalt and existential approaches to facilitate and enhance my work. I presently work as a counsellor with adults in a GP Surgery and with adolescents for the YMCA. I also have many years of experience working with young families and their sometimes challenging children.

I provide a safe, confidential and non-judgmental environment, where you can feel supported, to enable you to explore the difficult personal issues you may be experiencing. I will work with you on whatever you bring to counselling, this might include talking about life events (past and present), feelings, emotions, relationships, ways of thinking and patterns of behaviour. This may help you to gain order to your thoughts and feelings, understand your behaviour, and have the opportunity for personal growth and change. I believe that everyone is unique and will respect and accept you for who you are. I do not have the answers, but I am willing to support you through your difficult time to enable you to live your life more fully.

I am a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and adhere to their code of ethics and good practice.

I have an up to date enhanced CRB.
