About me and my therapy practice
For the past 19 years, I worked as an IAPT counsellor in NHS and in private practice. More recently, I also support Performing Art Students.
As an Integrative relational counsellor, I draw on modalities including Person-centred Emotion Focused Counselling for Depression, CBT skills, Bodywork and Mindfulness and Psycho-education such as new development of neuro-science.
I am also a Reiki Master and I have combined both practices for a more wholistic approach to healing as well as walking therapy encouraging healthy living with focus on nutrition and physical activities.
Practice description
What is counselling and is it for you now?
Counselling can be challenging and it takes courage but the gains can be insightful, transformative and freeing.
I am particularly interested in how early life attachments and trauma impacts us sometimes for the rest of our lives and impacts our way of relating to ourselves or others.
Together we explore what is causing you psychological, emotional relational or physical discomfort or dis-ease to identify and understand your deeper struggles and core issues.
I like to think of the counselling process as a therapeutic conversation which engages inquiry and reflection getting to know who you truly are and what you want and what gets in the way of you identifying and meeting your needs, with me, the therapist alongside you.
The aim of counselling is to help you build resilience and find better ways to navigate life's ups and downs with more confidence.
My commitment is about helping you find your inner strengths and resources to live your life more fully and in balance.
My first session
The first session is more of an assessment about gathering some background information and more details about the reasons you are seeking counselling and to look at what your expectations and goals are. It is an opportunity to get to know each other a bit and allows a building of our relationship.
It is when we can decide how we are going to work together and set guidelines so we both know what to expect moving forward with the therapeutic alliance.
