About me and my therapy practice

For many people the decision to seek counselling can be a difficult and daunting prospect.

My approach to counselling is based on offering you a safe, supportive and non-judgemental environment where we can take the time to explore what it is that is bringing you to therapy.

I have been able to help people explore, manage and overcome a wide range of personal and emotional difficulties including anxiety, relationship issues, depression, trauma, low self esteem, menopausal symptoms and work related stress.

I offer one to one, bespoke counselling sessions at my private consulting room in Wiltshire - ample parking, easy access and approximately 25 minutes from Bristol, Bath and Chippenham.

I engage in both short and long term counselling.

Day and evening appointments available.

For clients who are unable to attend regular sessions in person -Skype and FaceTime is available.
