About me
Navigating life can be difficult. Sometimes we’re not even aware of how much energy we are putting into just getting through the day, that wading through treacle feeling taking everything we have to just get through. On top of this, the challenges and distressing experiences that occur as part of life can all seem too much. Finding yourself here is the first positive step on your journey towards self understanding and healing. If you are looking for non judgmental, empathic support while you explore and work towards understanding yourself and your process, or what is ongoing for you at the moment, it would be my pleasure to accompany you on your journey of growth, self discovery and healing.
I work with adults, individually in sessions lasting 1 hour.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a qualified Integrative counsellor which means that I draw on understanding and techniques from different theories and ways of working. Viewing the world and your experience through different lenses, depending your experience, both past and present, can mean that we can find a way of working that both resonates with and makes sense to you. Mind, body, past and present along with the setting in which you find yourself will all be relevant to your journey. My practice is both Trauma informed and Neurodiversity informed and the pace of our work will be led by you.
I currently work for a charity supporting people through alcohol addiction and supporting people to find healthier ways of coping with life. This often includes working towards increasing emotional experience and regulation, understanding neurodiversity and working through historic traumatic events. I am registered with both COSCA as a counsellor member and BACP as a registered member.
I have also undertaken training in ASIST
