About me
Finding a counsellor can feel a daunting prospect, especially when feeling at your lowest ebb, navigating life's challenges, difficulties and the painful emotions these can bring. As an integrative therapist I will adapt my therapeutic approach to best suit your needs. I can offer you a safe space to explore these emotions and situations causing you most distress. In developing a trusting therapeutic relationship, we can explore what is impacting your wellbeing most, identify changes you wish to make and set realistic and achievable goals to work towards healing and growth, leaving you feeling empowered, stronger and more confident.
I have extensive experience of working with children and young people as well as adults, presenting with a diverse range of issues and can incorporate play and art therapy techniques where appropriate in addition to traditional talking therapies.
The hardest part in making change happen is taking that first step to ask for help. Well done for having the courage in taking that step today! Your journey in healing and change to begin living your fullest life starts here I am here to support you on your journey and look forward to hearing from you soon.
