Further information

Once you've reached the point where it all becomes too much and you have to reach out for support, it's important that you find the right counsellor for you. 

I'm an integrative counsellor, which means that I'll tailor the therapy to meet your individual needs. I have 15 years experience of working with clients who are living with depression, anxiety, or who have experienced trauma both in childhood and as adults. I currently work for a women's centre in Wakefield where we specialise in supporting women who have experienced domestic abuse or significant childhood trauma. I can help you explore the impact of your experiences and work with you to find a way forward.

You might have a budget that will only allow a few sessions or you want something more longer term, or something in-between. If you're looking for someone to offer a space for you to unpack your difficulties in a safe, confidential environment, then I can help.

Please be aware that I am available on Thursday evening and Fridays currently, with limited availability on a Saturday morning.
