The WellBee’ing Lodge is a safe and warm environment for adults, children couples and families. It is a a lovely inviting comfortable garden space where I conduct our therapy sessions.
In therapy, we explore the patterns, emotions, and experiences that shape how you relate to yourself and others. Together, we look at your thoughts, behaviours, and underlying beliefs to understand where they come from and how they influence your present life. This might include exploring your past relationships, attachment styles, communication habits, and coping mechanisms — as well as moments of conflict, self-doubt, or disconnection.
Therapy provides a safe and reflective space to unpack these experiences, identify recurring themes, and develop healthier, more conscious ways of responding. It’s also a place to reconnect with your authentic self, clarify your values, and strengthen your ability to navigate relationships and life's challenges with greater awareness and self-compassion.

At The WellBee’ing Lodge I can offer :
Counselling - Counselling is a talking therapy that involves a trained therapist listening to you and helping you find ways to deal with emotional issues. Sometimes the term "counselling" is used to refer to talking therapies in general, but counselling is also a type of therapy in its own right.
What can counselling help with?
Counselling can help you cope with:
A mental health condition, such as depression, anxiety or an eating disorder
An upsetting physical health condition, such as infertility
A difficult life event, such as a bereavement, a relationship breakdown or work-related stress
Difficult emotions – for example, low self-esteem or anger
Other issues, such as sexual identity.
Psychotherapy / Psychodynamic Therapy - Psychodynamic psychotherapy is more I depth than Counselling , it looks at how childhood experiences and thoughts you're not aware of (your unconscious mind) could be affecting your thinking, feelings, relationships and behaviour today. This is more in depth and could be longer therapy sessions than counselling. The work involves working in the past , present and future. .
Relationship Therapy - relationship therapy can help people who have problems that they wish to solve in their relationship's. Relationship therapy, or couples counselling, provides space for couples to discuss their issues and find solutions to problems within their relationship.
Relationships are an essential part of our lives. Close relationships bring many rewards but they are also challenging. All relationships face challenges. How we deal with these challenges is important and plays a significant role in how we experience close personal relationships and in how we resolve conflicts when they arise.
Contact me at the WellBee’ing Lodge to discuss your therapy. At times therapy may become challenging, but this is when your ‘stuff’ and emotions may come to the present. We will work through these tough emotions together.
When we are at our most vulnerable, this is when we both know this is the area that may need to be worked through.
Member organisations

Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.
