Practice description
Reaching out for help is a brave and courageous step, and it's important that you find a counsellor you feel comfortable with. I provide a confidential, welcoming and safe space for you to make sense of what’s troubling you and to start feeling better.
Email or message me to set up a complementary introductory telephone or video call to talk about your counselling needs and to see if I'm a good fit for you. When you experience a good connection with a counsellor you'll feel supported and can start making sense of your distress. That's what I want for you. In this setting you'll also have the opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of yourself, develop new coping strategies and strengthen your resilience.
If you prefer to skip an introductory call and go ahead and schedule your first appointment you are more than welcome to do that too.
I use a variety of counselling techniques tailored to your specific needs and personality. I offer sessions in-person at Riverside Wellbeing in Whaley Bridge, online sessions, and walk and talk therapy sessions in the Buxton area.
Sessions are 60 minutes. Most clients meet with me weekly or every second week.
My qualifications include a Level 4 Diploma in Counselling Practice, a certificate in outdoor therapy and a certificate in Understanding Children and Young People's Mental Health. I'm also a trained life coach working with clients who are feeling stuck and wanting to make a changes, and clients living and working abroad.
Before going into private practice I gained therapy experience in a hospice setting working with clients who have lost loved ones and clients who themselves are chronically or terminally ill. I also have experience working with NHS staff.
