​Feeling Lost? Reconnect with Yourself and What Matters Most.

Are you feeling stressed, burned out, or unsure of your direction? You're not alone. Many people experience these challenges, and I'm here to support you on your journey to rediscover yourself and create a more fulfilling life.

Imagine:

Feeling confident and accepting of who you are.

Reconnecting with your passions and values.

Making positive changes that bring you joy and purpose.

Together, we can:

Explore your thoughts and feelings in a safe, supportive space.

Identify what truly matters to you.

Develop strategies to overcome challenges and reach your full potential.

“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.” Oscar Wilde

Who am I? 

Prior to qualifying as a counsellor in 2013, I spent twenty years in management in universities. I also had a brief spell in the pharmaceutical industry and I gained a management qualification along the way. 

I am an accredited therapist with the BACP. The accredited status is awarded to experienced therapists who have successfully undergone a rigorous assessment process focusing on counselling practice, professional development and ethical thinking.

Since qualifying with a masters in Counselling Psychology, I have worked in local and national charities, a university and for a couple of private therapy businesses. I am particularly proud to have worked for NAPAC, the National Association for People Abused in Childhood.

What can you expect from me?

My training and experience in person centred counselling means I believe that given the right conditions, anyone can reach their full potential and become their true self and I will work with you to facilitate this transformation.

 I also use a variety of other therapeutic approaches, in particular a way of working known as ACT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. The aim of this approach is to help you live with the full range of your thoughts, feelings and emotions more easily, allowing you headspace to discover and focus on what you value in life. It is a form of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

 Before our first session, I will invite you to a complimentary 15 minute video call. This call is important as it allows us see if we both feel we are a good fit and we can work together. Research has show that clients benefit most from therapy where they feel understood and there is a good relationship with their therapist.  I would urge you to meet a few therapists before choosing one to work with. 

​How therapy progresses varies tremendously from one person to another, but typically our sessions might work as outlined below:

Our initial sessions will usually focus on what has brought you to therapy at this point in your life. 

​In subsequent sessions, we will look at what life is like for you now and identify the main issues you are facing at work and in your personal life, as well as examining how your feelings and emotions are affecting you.

Armed with this knowledge, we will work to identify what is important to you and gain clarity about your values. We will then examine your professional and personal life against these values to see what aligns and what might need to be changed. Finally we will move on to look at how you can make the necessary changes in your life.

​How long this will take is very personal. we need to reflect on your past experiences in order to reshape your "Now", as well as working on developing a future which will provide you with a greater sense of fulfilment, purpose and contentment.

I see clients during the daytime or evenings, Monday to Thursday. A session with me will last for fifty minutes and we would generally meet once a week.
