About me and my therapy practice

At some point in our life we can experience problems that cause us pain and confusion. This is where counselling really can help. I offer a warm, safe, non-judgemental and supportive environment to put you at ease to talk through what is troubling you. I believe this is important because it takes tremendous courage to take that first step and ask for help so please acknowledge your achievement, well done. I’m a mature, qualified and experienced Integrative Counsellor, providing a confidential and professional counselling service for those who need help and support through these difficult times. Together we look at where you are now, where you want to be and what we can do to get you to there. I combine theory and techniques from a variety of major theoretical approaches and integrate them into a single approach. This allows me to be not only be flexible but creative in my practice, tailoring my work to meet your specific individual needs or goals. In other words I have a bigger bag of tools to help! I have worked for the last several years in a cancer charity; a mental health organisation; general private practice and previously in a specialist day treatment centre for addiction and with the Cardiff Alcohol and Drug Team.
