About me and my therapy practice
I am accredited by The BACP and The National Counselling Society. I am experienced in working with clients from aged 4 years to 90 years. I am also a Clinical Supervisor.
Practice description
I am a very experienced Senior Accredited Psychotherapist that has trained in many different approaches but I am passionate about Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). CBT teaches you coping skills for dealing with different problems. It focuses on how your thoughts, beliefs and attitudes affect your feelings and actions. I am a warm, friendly, down to earth, empathic, and non-judgemental therapist with 19 years’ experience of working with people of all ages and from all walks of life. I see the aim of counselling as being to help you feel more in control of your life and allow you to live in a way that is more satisfying and productive. My aim is to help you understand what may be going on in your life, look at what you might like to change and empower you to do so. This will allow you to be free of any burdens that you originally came into counselling to address. I can help with a wide range of psychological, emotional & behavioural issues including Anger, Anxiety, Autism, ADHD, OCD, Depression, low self-esteem, relationship issues, Stress, Trauma and Bereavement.My first session
The first session is an Assessment where I will listen to your story and any concerns to see if I am the right fit for you and also for you to see if you feel we can work together.
