Various evenings and daytime sessions

Welcome to EEA Counselling, it is privilege to be trusted with any issues you may be struggling with. I have experience of working with a wide range of clients aged from 11 years old-adults and offer a friendly, welcoming environment, where you will be listened to with empathy and without judgement.

 I have worked successfully with a wide range of issues such as anxiety, anger management, Burnout, low self esteem, self harm, bereavement, relationship issues, sexuality, gender dysphoria, domestic and sexual abuse, and spirituality. 

Alongside talking therapy I work creatively with clients using, colour, imagery, and various artistic materials providing tools and techniques to help you mange issues in your everyday life.

 My aim is to aid you to focus on your individual needs and strengths, and help you to reach your full potential, by understanding your true self. Whatever issues you may be struggling with, I will work with you towards finding a new way of thinking.

Before starting a counselling journey, you may feel overwhelmed embarrassed or confused by your feelings, I am here to help you. Together we can talk through any issues past or present that may have left you feeling powerless or trapped.

I feel passionately about helping people to lead more fulfilling lives, one main benefit from therapy is that can help us explore what is going on inside, allowing us the space to reconnect with our inner-self. 

Working together I can aid you to find ways that empower you to make real and lasting change.

I am trained and qualified to deliver my work as a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society and I adhere to their ethical framework. I attend fortnightly supervision for all my counselling work, and I have an enhanced DBS check, registered with the update service. 

After your initial enquiry I offer a free 15  minute telephone based introductory chat where you can discuss in confidence what issues you or your child are facing , and I can talk through in what way I will be able to work with you to help you find a new approach to your individual situation.

Prior to the session I will ask you to fill out some forms which include your details and a short mood questionnaire to see how you are currently feeling.

During our first session we can discuss your goals and expectations of counselling and I will ask you for an overview of the issues you are trying to explore, before gently and empathetically trying to work through these issues together keeping the focus of our conversation on your needs and experiences.
