Qualified Integrative Counsellor (BACP reg. member)

Why Counselling?

You are unique. As an integrative counsellor I combine CBT, relational, psychodynamic and systemic approaches with a view to helping you get unstuck and move forward in your goals.

Improving mental, emotional and relational health means looking at the journey you have been through to bring understanding in the present and positively affect your future for the better.

The counselling relationship is unlike speaking with a friend or family member. It offers objectivity and expertise and can be a very worthwhile investment in your freedom, growth or just feeling normal again.

Experience has shown me

Support That Makes a Difference

You are more capable than you currently feel

Self awareness can be powerful

Practising new skills in a safe environment can improve real world living

Client feedback

We are very thankful for the time you spent with us and you really understood what we were going through (2019)

I am now more able to look at stressful situations from a distance which helps me with overcoming negative feelings during these moments and solving the problems with less effort (2019)

At first I was sceptical but it was amazing how much better I felt (2018)

I have never felt so listened to , it really helped me make sense of what has been very upsetting. I have learnt so much and I will be able to use this throughout my life and feel this is a turning point to a new and happier me (2017)

I will never forget the kindness and compassion you showed as you were with me in the darkest times (2017)

In counselling, I realised it wasn't my fault (2016)
