About me and my therapy practice
It can be hard to talk about things that you are finding difficult, even with people who are close like family or friends. I offer a supportive, non-judgmental and confidential space to help you safely explore your problems, make sense of difficult life events and for us to work together to help you find some solutions.
Practice description
I have worked in the NHS and private practice with people struggling with a range of difficulties such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, emotional regulation issues, relationship difficulties and different kinds of loss.
I am an Integrative Counsellor and have trained in several therapeutic approaches including the Person-Centred approach, Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) and Narrative Therapy. I can offer different ways of working together to help you find the best way forward for yourself at a pace that suits you. I may suggest tools and strategies to help you cope better, depending on your needs and preferences, however, I will not tell you what to think or what you should do and we will work at a pace that you are in control of.
My first session
I offer a free initial 30-minute Zoom or telephone call to enable us to explore the potential for working together and for us to talk through any concerns you may have about starting therapy
