About me and my therapy practice
Hello, I am a Person- Centred Counsellor/Psychotherapist MBACP.
I work face to face from Halifax centre. Using a flexible approach for individuals' needs in a safe and comfortable environment.
Whatever your age or gender, sadly we occasionally may suffer from feeling sad, low self-esteem, panic attacks, anxiety & depression.
We may at times struggle with coming to terms with Bereavement, PTSD & Trauma as well as many other issues and life challenges.
Practice description
After the initial telephone assessment to see if therapy is right for you, we will then arrange a face to face appointment.
You will have a choice of 2 therapy rooms. 1 ground floor, the other on the 1st floor. The rooms are warm and welcoming with natural daylight, bathroom facilities and a car park.
My first session
Your 1st session will be where we discuss the Counselling Agreement and answer any questions that you may have. We will also make arrangements in the diary to see if you wish to attend weekly/fortnightly etc.

About me and my therapy practice
Hello, I am a person-centred counsellor, also known as the humanistic approach. so in short you lead the way in directing your own therapeutic journey. You will only be required to discuss the issues that you feel comfortable with. If at any point you feel that you need a break then that's perfectly acceptable. We will go at your pace no matter how long that takes.
I also work as a School Counsellor, therefore have considerable experience in working with the emotions and difficulties during adolescence. A confidential space is often all that is required for a child to explore their feelings with a trusted adult. Helping them to make sense of their thoughts and behaviour.
No matter what your gender or beliefs are sometimes we need a little help to get through a tough time. If this sounds like you then please don't hesitate to give me a call/e-mail.
We can work it out together.
