About me
Being an integrative, person-centred counsellor means that I work with different psychological theories to understand human minds; using a range of theories means we can work in a way that feels most useful to you.
It may be that we explore your personality, internal drives and behaviours, work in a solution-focused way or use CBT interventions.
By seeking to understand your 'reflex' thoughts we can discover unhelpful thinking styles and unpick why a relationship or situation is causing your life such difficulty and work to lessen the negativity in your life.
My private counselling practice is situated in Yeovil where I offer appointments until 7pm.
1:1 sessions only. Sorry, no couples.
NB:To access my counselling room you need to be able to manage steps and a steep, but brief, slope.
