About me and my therapy practice

With experience working with adults and young people in social care, charity, FE and private settings, I aim to offer a warm, respectful therapeutic space for individuals to explore where they are in life and any difficulties they are experiencing. I have considerable experience of working with people who have survived sexual abuse, rape and other trauma.

Practice description

The therapeutic relationship formed within counselling is so important to help clients to effect change, become more self-aware, problem solve and form meaningful relationships with others. It is the aspect of counselling that comes with the individual therapist and not something learnt in training. I value my ability to help clients feel at ease and feel valued. With over 12 years experience of working with a wide range of issues, experiences and difficulties, I aim to offer a safe space for clients to feel heard, to speak freely and feel validated.

I have worked with sexual trauma, particularly experienced in childhood and adolescence for over 12 years and have a solid understanding and competency in working with this specialism.

In addition, I work with many other challenges we might encounter in life such as relationship difficulties, workplace stress and challenges, loss of sense of self, anxiety disorders including OCD amongst others.
