About me
I work with people who are ready for change but feeling that they would like someone to help them find a way forward. I help clients address anxiety, depression, social anxiety and many other issues. My work bridges the space between counselling and coaching, and is very much around finding what you want, and working on getting you there.
I offer both long and short term counselling for a wide range of issues. I work in a relational and client centred way to create with you, a programme of therapy which meets your needs.
My aim is to help build your confidence, and to work with you to develop strategies which will help and support you long after therapy is completed.
My work explores the roots of the difficulties you might experience, helping to understand the underlying issues and put them into context.
Once you are ready, we'll take a solution focused approach, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, therapeutic enquiry, and any techniques which you want to bring yourself to work with those issues.
I am also a qualified and experienced counselling supervisor. Please feel free to view my supervisor profile on this site.
Training, qualifications & experience
I hold a Level 5 BTEC Professional Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and a Diploma in Counselling Supervision.
I am a registered member of the National Counselling Society.
Experience in Practice: Counselling since 1998. Supervising since 2014.
Currently I am in private practice where my clients bring a broad range of issues that they wish to explore. My work is relational, seeking to build a warm and trusting therapeutic partnership with my clients, and working with them to achieve the goals they have set for themselves.
I have many years of counselling experience, initially in the addiction recovery/ mental health field. The experience gained here has been invaluable, and has given me a good grounding for my current work in helping clients who are looking for change.
