About me and my therapy practice

I offer a safe space for you to talk. I will listen respectfully to you and seek to understand how life is for you without judging you. I will work alongside you and support you in finding a way forward and making positive changes.

I am a BACP registered and accredited counsellor, working in central Leicester. I am fully insured and have qualifications in Psychology and Counselling to Masters level. I initially trained as a person-centred counsellor, but have since developed a more integrative approach, having completed further training in EMDR and CBT. Additionally, I am currently training as a psychotherapist in Transactional Analysis. 

I offer counselling to adults, children and young people. I have previously worked for Cruse Bereavement Care,  and have also counselled survivors of historical sexual abuse and rape at a Rape Crisis Centre. I have provided counselling for children in schools for Relate and in private practice.

Concessions are given to those on lower incomes and counselling trainees. If you have difficulty in accessing the premises due to disability, then an alternative location can be discussed.
