Further information

It can feel nerve-wracking considering therapy or counselling for the first time! I have a supportive and genuine approach and am able to tailor sessions around a person's individual circumstances. You can choose the number of sessions that feels right for you and I'm happy to provide a free 15 minute phone call so that you can ask any questions before making a decision.

I usually find clients feel reassured and relieved after having had a session and it can be quite life transforming after a block of therapy sessions. It's an honour to be able to help people to rethink life situations, relationships and perspectives, in a way they may not normally have chance to do.

I am also trained in a variety of therapeutic approaches and have developed a wide tool kit over the years, which can really help you with your own coping strategies! I've worked with many different kinds of people and am happy to answer any questions you might have.
