About me
My Training
As an integrative therapist, my training has provided me with a range of therapeutic models to use that best suit the issues that individuals bring into the therapy room, everyone is unique so therefore therapy must be too. I am also an accredited Hypnotherapist and EFT practitioner, registered and accredited with the National Hypnotherapy Society.
How I work
My approach to counselling is built on an integrative framework, meaning we'll explore various pathways to support your unique journey. I offer a non-judgemental, empathetic and understanding space where your voice is truly valued. My goal is to create a safe and caring environment to feel truly heard, seen and genuinely listened to, allowing you the freedom to simply be. Here, you can confidently discuss both past and present difficulties, gaining awareness and understanding about unwanted thoughts, feelings and behaviours. The objective of our work together will be to help you overcome your symptoms, bring about lasting change, and move towards recovery.
What happens in the first session?
Before our online meeting, we'll have a quick phone chat to talk about your concerns and find a convenient time for our sessions. I'll email you some forms to fill out and return before our first session. These forms will help me get your contact information and understand how your situation is affecting you. After our first session, I'll send you the therapy contract. For hypnotherapy, there will be a few extra forms to tailor the therapy to your needs. Everything we discuss will be confidential and we'll go at a pace that's comfortable for you.
How can I help you
Navigating life's most challenging moments can bring deep internal and external pain, affecting every aspect of our well-being. With extensive experience working within the NHS, hospice care, and a blood cancer charity, I support people through life-altering situations with warmth, compassion, and understanding.
I have particular experience in bereavement and loss, domestic abuse (mental and physical) relationship breakdowns, depression, anxiety, and issues around self-esteem and confidence. I understand how overwhelming these experiences can feel, and the impact they can have on both emotional and physical wellbeing.
If any of this resonates with you, you are welcome to come and talk with me. Together, we can begin to make sense of what you are going through and find a way forward at your own pace.
