About me
When you are feeling overwhelmed and struggling to find some peace of mind or to find the real you and be the person you feel you should be, it can be difficult to find a way through on your own.
Having the time and space to talk to someone in a safe and confidential environment can really help to untangle your thoughts and feelings and get you back to feeling yourself again. So why not get a free telephone consultation and start on the road back to peace of mind.
I am an accredited Counsellor and Psychotherapist working in private practice and for charities. I am experienced at dealing with depression and anxiety, relationship issues and loss. The charitable work I do is helping survivors of rape and sexual abuse find some peace again. Many of my private clients are Police Officers and NHS staff. My practice focuses on acceptance, sound ethics and confidentiality.
What to expect.
If, after a brief telephone conversation, you wish to explore coming for therapy further, we will arrange a meeting.
Meeting in person will offer you the chance to talk more fully about your situation and your feelings, what you are looking for from therapy, and whether you feel that you may benefit from working with me.
This might mean agreeing to work for a specific number of sessions or deciding to work together for as long as is helpful to you. After the initial meeting, sessions are an hour and usually take place at the same time each week.

Further information
During a counselling session, you are encouraged to talk freely about whatever problems have prompted you to get in touch or whatever might be on your mind.
In time limited-counselling, the sessions may have a more focused feel.
It is the counsellor’s role to listen carefully and provide a space and relationship in which you feel safe to connect with, explore and express your thoughts and feelings.
You will not be given advice, but invited to find your own answers, tell your own story and find more fulfilling and rewarding ways to live your life.
