About me and my therapy practice
Money. Sex. Power. Death. Relationships. Anxiety. Religion. God. Depression. Abuse. Feeling different to everyone else.
I am here to help you navigate life's difficult experiences. To carry on with renewed hope or to redraw your map entirely. And all in a safe and confidential therapeutic relationship.
We all need a space where we can say out loud the things we are thinking. Sometimes we just need to be silent and know we are understood. Other times we may need to rage against the pain and injustice we have tasted.
I am a Person Centred Counsellor, believing that your needs are at the heart of my practice. At the heart of everything I do is a passionate, evidence based commitment, to build a strong therapeutic relationship with my clients. This relationship is founded on deep empathy, my authentic openness and unconditional acceptance for who you are.
As we open up and trust a professional therapist with our greatest difficulties, it is my experience that something wonderful can happen. In our words and silence, we hear ourselves in a new way. Sometimes for the first time. And the healing begins to flow as we understand our pain and find new directions for our lives.
Practice description
Each session lasts between 50 to 60 minutes and costs £50. I offer concessionary rates for students and counselling trainees; please email me for further information.
I have been involved in helping people all my working life. This is my passion. I believe that every life has meaning, even when we feel we have lost everything. Therapy provides a safe and strong place to explore our dark places and find new ways of being.
About ten years ago, I came across the work of Carl Rogers and this changed my life. Through his research as a psychologist, he identified the core conditions necessary for therapeutic persaonality change. Powerful empathy needs to flow so we feel understood. The counsellor needs to be warm, authentic and open to their client. And the counsellor needs to have unconditional positive regard for their client. This is the gold standard and I aim for it in every session.
I am a Therapeutic Counsellor and an accredited member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy).
I have worked as a staff counsellor at Cardiff and Vale college.
I am a Bereavement Volunteer with Cruse Bereavement Care.
I am also a church minister and accredited by the Baptist Union of Great Britain.
I am also a journalist and public relations practitioner.
