About Me
I am a fully qualified BACP Humanistic Integrative therapist offering Counselling and Psychotherapy to adults, young adults and couples.
I have previous experience working as a counsellor both within the NHS and the charitable sector.
Taking that first step in asking for help can be incredibly hard. I am able to offer you a safe, non-judgemental space to explore and make sense of difficult thoughts and feelings.
I believe that forming a strong, contained therapeutic alliance between counsellor and client is central to the work. By establishing a warm, honest relationship, I can support you in raising your self-awareness, helping you to gain a clearer understanding of your emotions and how you relate to others, possibly exploring areas which have previously been out of sight or inaccessible. I work collaboratively with whatever you bring to the sessions, you are always the guiding lead, as this is your space. The therapy room can be an exciting, unpredictable, emotional and sometimes humorous place I believe that when supported in the right way you can begin to connect with new, alternative scripts and behaviours which can enhance resilience, create meaning and allow space for change.
Imagine being properly heard by someone impartial, who demonstrates unconditional empathy, genuinely cares, has only your best interests at heart and can help you to work through whatever is troubling you. Imagine being in a safe and confidential space, on a day and time that suits you. Imagine having someone who is highly skilled and fully trained in all the main counselling theories and skills and can deliver an integrated course of talking therapy that is uniquely tailored just for you and your individual needs.
