About me and my therapy practice

I hold a BA(Hons) in integrative relational counselling and  have a number of years of experience working in the charity and private sector, supporting clients with a wide range of emotional issues. ​ At the heart of my counselling practice is the aim to provide a space where you can come to breathe, to be, and find unconditional acceptance, positive reflection and discover alternative narratives and perspectives for yourself. A relationship that enables that to occur, allows for the development of self-awareness, self- acceptance, hope and healing.

I offer an integrative approach which draws from a range of counselling theories, to suite the clients specific needs and preferences; including psychodynamic theory, CBT, systemic approaches and issues of spiritual formation. Growing in self-awareness leads to new perspectives and renewed energy. 

I am a therapist because I have come to learn that many people struggle emotionally and feel alone, unheard, irrelevant, tired, worthless, unconnected, sad, anxious and fearful. They need someone to listen to them and show them they have value.
