About me and my therapy practice
Sometimes life just feels and is rubbish, and things we felt we could cope with have become so difficult you don't even know where to begin.
Other times you just don't 'feel yourself' and you just can't figure out why but you want your 'old you' back.
And other times you have had enough of therapists and they just don't hear you, but maybe this time it might be different.....
Life is not perfect, and throughout life new situations regularly 'test' us to see if we can cope. It can be really difficult to know what to do and who to speak to without feeling judged and without feeling like you've failed in some way.
Taking the decision to contact a therapist takes a lot of courage, finding the right therapist is even harder. Listen to your instincts, and you will find the person for you, whether that is me or someone else....
Sometimes we need someone else to put our lives into perspective because we get stuck in the beliefs and thoughts we have held for a long time that may not be working for us now.
Take the time to value YOU, only you can do that.
I am a professionally qualified counsellor/psychotherapist who is interested in and has worked with many different issues. We are all individuals, and I believe one 'way' does not work for everyone. Therefore it's necessary to see what works for you, as I work Integratively, I can work with you and create a tailored approach that helps you reach your goals but keeps you in control of your therapy.
Ultimately it is the professional relationship we create that decides how effective counselling will be, trust, and honesty is integral to this relationship. If this is something you are looking for please feel free to contact me. In the meantime, please take care.

About me and my therapy practice
I aim to provide supervision using the Seven Eyed Model. Self awareness is key to understanding yourself, your work and your client, as well as self reflection.
I aim to provide an open and non judgemental environment, where exploration of the self is encouraged in order to better work with the client. Being open, honest and vulnerable with yourself I believe is crucial in being a 'good' therapist.
I am flexible with the number of hours you are looking to have for supervision, whether it is fortnightly or monthly.
