Our relationships or life experiences can sometimes confuse us or place mental roadblocks which can prevent us from living our lives fully. Although life issues can make it difficult to understand our feelings or find our answers, I believe that each of us is the expert regarding our own life and feelings. My approach to counselling aims to fully respect that by aiming to enable you as a unique individual, to process your circumstances, work through your life issues and if applicable, find your answers, using methods and styles of relating which are tailored to you. As an integrative counsellor, I have trained in several therapeutic approaches which means I can aim to meet each client’s individual needs by drawing on a variety of approaches and techniques. 

Understanding how difficult it can be to make the decision to seek counselling, I offer a welcoming environment so that we can hopefully work together to find the safe ways to unlock your answers to whatever life questions you have whether past, present or future. Having worked with Cruse Bereavement Care and Nexus NI, coupled with my own life experience, stands me in good stead to accompany a wide range of clients on their counselling journey.

I offer the first session of therapy free of charge. I feel this gives both myself and the client a relaxed unpressured space in which  we can decide together if the service that I can offer matches the clients needs, relational style or expectations of counselling. To do this effectively, an initial overview and assessment of the clients current circumstances will be necessary.
