The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, I can change.

Counselling with me is working with someone that won't judge, won't tell you what to think and encourages you to express all your feelings in safe and confidential space; supporting you to realise what's the right path for you.  You'll explore what you need without the expectations of the world and be supported to make the little changes that make a big difference.

You're in the driving seat of what we explore and when.

It's an investment in yourself.  Someone who is 100% there for you, strives to see the world through your eyes and doesn't judge.

I don’t work to the standard model of a set number of sessions, so I can work with you for as long as you need me to.  

I work with adults in both short-term and long-term work. I am an integrative psychotherapeutic counsellor, which means I'll draw on different approaches to help you with what you need, when you need it, but you'll be in charge on what we work on and when, and I'll never push you 'too far.'   While I have experience of helping people with a range of issues, my specialist areas include:

• bereavement and grief
• loss 
• palliative care 
• depression
• anxiety
• trauma 
• anticipatory grief 
• self-identity 
• self-confidence 
• anger 
• loneliness 
• self-exploration 
• ecotherapy - working outdoors to help people heal through connecting with nature as a co-therapist. This includes walk and talk therapy
• working with disabled people to empower them in an 'ableist' world working creatively, using natural objects and other creative objects to help you tune in to your thoughts and feelings.

The first session with me will be free as an initial consultation, and you'll receive a 10% discount if you book in July and August.  Find out more about your first session and prices
