About me and my therapy practice
Do you feel overwhelmed and need to talk?
Are you numb and feel disconnected from yourself?
Have you forgotten how to feel happy and joyful?
I am here to offer you a pause and to listen and to provide you with a safe and accepting environment.
At 6 ft 2, some describe me as a gentle giant, and I can offer you a secure and grounded space in which we can meet, and I can get to know you and what has brought you to counselling. I am hopeful that our time together will help you to unlock your barriers and to find acceptance, direction and a way forward.
Practice description
I have 17 years’ experience in the healthcare sector, and in the last 5 years I have found myself immersed in counselling and psychology.
I have training in Integrative Counselling, Trauma Informed Approaches, Relationships, and Anger and Rage, and have experience of working with clients who have experienced a range of issues including: trauma, abuse, bereavement, relationship issues, anxiety, stress and depression.
My first session
For your first session we can either dive straight in, or if you prefer we can have a free 20 minute "Getting to know each other" session during which you can ask any questions, and we can see if we both feel we would be a good fit to work together. If you would like this please let me know at the time of booking.
