About me and my therapy practice
Whether experiencing a crisis, a difficulty that has been bothering you for some time, or you just want to talk, counselling can create a safe, regular time to talk to someone who is professionally trained.
I completed the Westminster Pastoral Foundation, Diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling, in 2003. I have experience working for the NHS, mental health charities, addiction and dependency treatment services, a counselling service and a University Student Counselling Service. I am currently delivering therapeutic, online counselling for a counselling service as well as my private online practice.
Psychodynamic counselling is an approach that can support you to gain deeper insight and awareness of your thoughts, feelings and behaviour, and your relationship with others. Talking about present day concerns and past experiences, gaining insights and identifying recurring patterns, can enable a person to make decisions and choices, reduce difficult and distressing symptoms and improve health and well-being.
Practice description
I offer face to face counselling in Plymouth, online counselling across the UK, and telephone counselling. Sessions are weekly, for 50 minutes.
I work with young adults aged 16+ and adults.
The counselling can be open-ended and longer term, or a brief intervention and time limited. This is dependent on each person's individual needs and is discussed and agreed by us at the beginning of counselling.
You can contact me by text message or call my mobile number, or email me and we can arrange a suitable time to meet.
