About me
I'm an Accredited Counsellor offering Emotional Therapeutic counselling and have been practising for 8 years. I work with adults and couples with issues such as anger, anxiety and panic attacks, relationship problems including affairs and betrayals, trauma, feeling sad, bereavement, depression, stress and low self esteem or confidence.
I am also experienced in LGBTQ+ counselling, working with gender diverse, trans adolescents and adults, and have additional training in treating Chronic stress.
Emotional Therapeutic Counselling is a person-centred therapy based on the belief that many of our struggles in life are emotionally based and our feelings don't always respond to logical thought. Therefore working with your emotions and feelings rather than with your mind can help you heal and enables you to better cope with your worries, anxieties, depression or feelings of sadness and grief.
Research suggests that the therapeutic relationship itself is more important for a good outcome than a particular type of therapy. This means that I am going to help you to feel safe, accepted and treated with respect and perhaps also challenge you in a positive and constructive way, then you are more likely to make good use of our sessions. I have successfully helped many clients to feel this way with very positive outcomes.
If you have any questions, then please do get in touch with me. We can schedule a call back at a time that's convenient for you, please use this link to book.
