About me and my therapy practice
I believe that life is a gift; yet, at times, it can feel quite the opposite. Sometimes, we can feel overwhelmed by our difficulties.
Often, a trained, non-judgmental and objective ear can help order one's thoughts, challenge ingrained patterns of behaviour, and manage emotions. I am patient, supportive, and non-judgemental in my work, taking a genuine and compassionate interest in my clients. I aim to provide a warm and caring environment, to build trust, so that you can feel safe to explore issues at your own pace.
I am a trained counsellor with an integrative-relational approach; I tailor my skills to meet the needs of individuals and have wide experience of a broad range of clients.
Please feel very welcome to come and share your story with me in a safe, confidential, and calm environment here in beautiful Topsham.
