About me and my therapy practice
Hi, I appreciate how daunting it is to take the first step and share your feelings of anxiety or depression, however, my clients often express relief from being able to discuss their grief, anger, or shame. Establishing a genuine connection is at the heart of my counselling practice, helping my clients to feel at ease to share what is troubling them face to face or online.
Many people reach a point in their lives where old habits of managing thoughts and feelings no longer work. We are mistakenly led to believe that a frenzy of activity will quiet our unrest; however what lies beneath is a range of psychological challenges such as depression, overwhelming stress and anxiety, panic attacks, perfectionism and addictions. Suppressing emotions simply makes life more difficult and hinders our relationships.
Practice description
My manner is warm and professional and I will build therapy around the particular needs of each person who comes to see me. I will draw on all my training and expertise in several therapeutic models to ensure I offer a truly individual service. I have completed in-depth training in humanistic and integrative therapy and attend regular training. I am a registered member of the BACP and abide by their Ethical Framework.
My first session
I offer a free introductory call during which we may agree to go ahead and book the first session.
Within our first session, we discuss your expectations, agree on how we will work together, complete an assessment, and start the therapy offered.
