About me
Welcome. If you are here you are likely in some distress. Your pain and your struggles matter, and I am glad you are seeking support.
Working collaboratively, we would explore what is bothering you. I offer a safe, warm and non-judgemental space in which you can talk and gain some understanding about what is going on for you. This way of working can help you to feel better and support you to move towards the life you want for yourself. I believe strongly that you are best placed to understand what it is you need, and that together we can help you to gain clarity and begin the healing process.
I realise that it may be difficult to choose between so many professionals, particularly when you may already be feeling overwhelmed by your problems. For this reason, I am always happy to offer a free half hour either in person or on the phone. My hope is that this time will help you to get a sense of how I work and whether we will be able to work effectively together.
If you decide you would like to work with me, please get in touch either through my website or using the details provided here.
