Life’s Difficulties

Life can throw many obstacles in our path. Obstacles that may leave us feeling overwhelmed, struggling to cope, or dissatisfied with our current situation.

Such challenges may stem from our past or present circumstances, or life not turning out quite as we’d envisioned.

If you find yourself yearning for change but feel stuck and uncertain about the path forward, therapy might be a valuable resource. A bit of extra support is sometimes what we need to become unstuck and find contentment.

How I work

As a Humanistic Counsellor, I focus on building a safe and trusting relationship so you can:

  • Sharing your thoughts and emotions with ease;

  • Feel confident that you will be met with understanding and acceptance.  

I use an integrative approach, tailoring my methods to try to best suit you. This could include giving you space to explore your issues, offering coping strategies or a more creative approach.

I conduct sessions face-to-face, online (via MS Teams) and by telephone. Online sessions mirror the principles of in-person therapy while offering you the convenience of accessing your appointment from your preferred location.

I firmly believe each of us possesses the inner resources for healing and growth when given the right support.  Such support can assist you in tapping into your inner wisdom and fostering personal growth for a calmer and more fulfilling life.

About Therapy

As a therapist, I aim to assist and support you, free from judgment, as we explore the difficulties you’re facing.  I strive to help you:

  • Make sense of your experiences;

  • Gain new perspectives;

  • Increase your resilience and overall well-being.

The prospect of seeking counselling may seem daunting initially. However, I aim to create a space where you can feel comfortable and at ease. I view counselling as a collaborative process, one that I’m committed to supporting and guiding you right from our initial contact.

Further Information

I offer both long and short-term counselling and psychotherapy through face-to-face, online or telephone consultations.

I hold a Master’s Degree in Counselling & Psychotherapy and am accredited by the British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP).

For any enquiries, additional information or to book an initial session, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
