About me

Anxiety, stress, trauma, grief ... Whatever you are facing, I can support you to explore your thoughts, feelings and reactions and to find answers that fit your unique situation. Using a gentle, integrative approach we look at problems together, combining techniques from proven counselling methods to suit your needs. I can also help you learn simple wellbeing techniques that you can use at home or work. I look forward to hearing from you.

Further information

I use a very gentle model which has been proven highly effective in decreasing symptoms of anxiety, depression, psychological, relational, physical and spiritual distress and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).  Rooted in Gestalt theory, my integrative approach has an emphasis on listening and curiosity; on awareness of the present and what helps right now rather than the past or future; and on the person’s innate drive towards wholeness.
