UKCP Accredited Relational Gestalt Psychotherapist
Oldham, Lancashire, OL2 8PH

About me

I support people to understand their life experiences, become aware of the patterns they live by and reimagine how they might like to live going forwards.

Some people come to therapy because they have lost their way a little and a dedicated time and confidential space to reconnect with what they really want, proves valuable.

Or something has happened to them that hurts their soul so much, that every day is pain-full and simply sharing the weight of it with another human being, feels a little less lonely and a whole lot clearer.

Or, of course, it is something entirely different altogether.

My practice is grounded, creative and intent on supporting people to come home to themselves. If you feel that we could work well together, you are very welcome to contact me for an introductory call or to begin.

Key details

DBS check

In England and Wales, the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS, formerly known as CRB) carry out criminal records checks for individuals working with vulnerable groups, such as children. To find out more, visit gov.uk , or contact this professional directly

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
