My Counselling approach will guide you with the greatest of care, respect and understanding, helping you understand what it is that may be affecting you and negotiating a healthier way to deal with it.

I work psycho-dynamically; looking at the bigger picture - especially the ways in which present difficulties maybe connected to events or relationships that occurred in the past. Sometimes we unconsciously repeat these old patterns and understanding the origins of our thoughts and feelings can help us approach life differently enabling the possibility for positive change and choice in our lives.

Are you feeling anxious, worried or sad? Perhaps your mood has been low for a while and you can't seem to shift that feeling. sometimes life events such as losing a loved one, relationship break -ups, work issues or family issues leave us feeling helpless. Maybe something happened recently or in the past, that's affecting how things are for you now? Or Maybe you want to make some changes but feel stuck in destructive patterns?

Sometimes its hard to talk, but saying things out loud to a professionally trained counsellor can often make you feel less isolated and overwhelmed. Counselling offers a confidential space to explore your thoughts and feeling safely.

Whatever you are going through counselling can offer you the opportunity to understand and come to terms with your troubles.  Sometimes there may be a sense that life is lacking in meaning and direction. We can all lose sight of who we really are and what we want from life. Counselling can help you make sense of your experiences, reconnect with your inner resources and live life more fully.

The first session is an opportunity for you to talk about what you hope to achieve for yourself by coming into counselling and what your issues are as you see them. 

It will also give me the opportunity to ask you questions about yourself in order to see if what I can offer is appropriate for your needs. Where I feel I am not the right person to work with you, I will endeavour to make a more appropriate referral
