Hello,

Sometimes life can be difficult, it can feel overwhelming when asking for help and support so I welcome you to my profile. I am a qualified counsellor working with children, young people and adults.

I am a qualified person-centred counsellor, who believes in creating a space where you can feel truly heard without judgement.

We can build an open and trusting therapeutic relationship, collaboratively exploring thoughts, feelings and senses, for  greater understanding of self.

I have worked with a diverse range of clients enabling me to gain valuable experience. I work with adults, young people and children from the ages of 6 years.

When working with young people and children, I may work in a more creative way, adapting to each unique individual. Communicating our thoughts and feelings can be hard, creative activities can help channel expression gently approaching inner feelings.

I worked as a school counsellor in a primary setting (ages 4-11) and a boarding school setting ( ages 13-19).

I am working with Oscars Wish Foundation counselling parents and siblings following the loss of a baby or babies before, during or shortly after birth.

Qualifications.

I hold professional Insurances and registered with the Information Commissioners Office (ICO).

I am DBS enhanced checked.

I hold a Fdsc in person-centred counselling (university of Brighton).

I hold a BSc in Person Centred Counselling (University of Brighton)

I have two locations I work from

Sessions.

I offer face-to-face counselling at £50.00 per 50 minutes session.

I can offer telephone and zoom counselling sessions if preferred.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Hello,

Sometimes life can be difficult, it can feel overwhelming when asking for help and support so I welcome you to my profile.

common causes of distress are often:

• Anxiety
• Depression
• Self Worth
• Relationship Issues
• Loss/Bereavement
• Work Related Issues
• And many more

Some people feel disconnected to themselves and the world around them without knowing the cause. Counselling can be a way to unearth these disconnections.
