Hello,
At the moment I am working face to face or via zoom online Monday to Friday mornings, afternoons and some evenings
I realise we sometimes have busy lives, and as long as I have available time slots I will always be as flexible as I can be.
Couples' therapy is always face to face.
About me and my therapy practice
I have an all-inclusive practice free from prejudice of any kind, all are welcome.
I grew up in London and spent most of my life as a chef, this gave me a very broad knowledge and understanding of different cultures, races and sexualities.
This acquired knowledge increases my, interest in, and empathy for the human condition, ...... what we all go through, and how that affects us, and informs my practice.
I am simply another person in the room helping someone feel safe enough to work through their troubling issues and come to a place of healing, acceptance or understanding.
Through my continued training and experience in client work I am now also an IFS informed therapist, i have been working with all degrees of trauma and grief that clients carry using this method of therapy.
This is a gentle yet dynamic form of therapy that allows historically wounded parts that have been pushed down and away (exiled) within a client because of historical trauma to have a voice, be shown compassion and allowed to release the burdens they carry.
In my life I have known extreme emotional and physical pain, this informs my empathy when working with clients through theirs.
Practice description
The practice is within a listed 16th century building in Banbury Oxfordshire, all that visit say what a nice feel the building has.
I am trained in Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples, Gestalt, Transactional Analyses, Attachment theory and Humanistic Person Centred Therapy and IFS parts work.
I integrate these therapies as required by the clients and their presenting needs, with my core modality being Person Centred therapy.
This for me is about creating a safe and confidential space for a client to discover their answers at their speed, a healing and safe space to work through their pain, thoughts and feelings that trouble them.
My first session
I offer clients a free initial chat so we can meet and work out if they would like me to be their counsellor.
I prefer to do this face to face, but, if necessary, an arrange online zoom meet up is fine.
The first session is always around getting an in depth understanding of what is troubling the client and whatever in their life story they feel safe enough to share.
Just send me an email or text message and this can be arranged.
