About me and my therapy practice
Offering a compassionate counselling service, I provide a secure space for individuals navigating life's challenges. Sharing your emotions can be daunting, and my goal is to create a judgment-free environment outside your immediate support network. Whether you're hesitant to discuss your feelings for the first time or unsure about the complexity of your concerns, reaching out is encouraged.
Employing a person-centered approach, I facilitate sessions based on your priorities, fostering a calming, personalised, and confidential atmosphere. As a qualified therapist with a numerous years of experience, I've supported a diverse range of clients.
Having previously worked as an NHS Midwife and Genetic Counsellor for the last decade, I have created a expertise in using my counselling skills to support those struggling with their mental health during a pregnancy or postnatal period, as well as those who have experienced birth trauma, miscarriage, pregnancy or neonatal loss, and tocophobia.
My expertise extends to assisting individuals coping with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, health challenges, bereavements, abuse, and various life transitions including post-leave transitions and life balance challenges.
I am also passionate about supporting individuals navigating the complexities of a genetic diagnosis in the family.
Believing in the transformative power of connecting with a professional, I offer a unique blend of expert knowledge, compassion, and empathy. I am dedicated to guiding individuals through personal trauma, emphasising the significance of expert support for recovery.
Collaborating in the counselling setting presents an opportunity for self-discovery and understanding, shaping your present and future self. It's my professional honour to assist you on this transformative journey toward personal development and well-being.
Practice description
I work in a variety of modalities including face to face work in central Manchester and remote sessions at flexible times including telephone and zoom sessions.
For some, counselling is a daunting idea or isn't quite suited to their individual needs. For these clients I can offer shorter coaching or 'check in' sessions or email/text work. Please contact me and I can create a unique proposal tailored to you
My first session
Recognizing the importance of finding the right therapist tailored to your needs, I provide an initial consultation lasting approximately 20-30 minutes via telephone or video chat. This allows us the opportunity to discuss your requirements and expectations, offering you insight into my approach and addressing any inquiries you may have.
Following this consultation, there is no obligation to proceed with my services if you don't sense the right fit. In certain instances, it might be more suitable for me to guide you towards alternative services or counsellors.
When you're prepared to take the next step, feel free to reach out and schedule your consultation. This marks the beginning of our exploration of the most effective way for us to collaborate.
