About me and my therapy practice
Counselling is very much a two way process. As a counsellor whilst I can't tell you what to do, or give you the answers, I can support you, through your own personal journey, and some of the challenges you might be facing.
I have experience of working with people from various walks of life. Some of the situations I have worked with include: self esteem issues/confidence issues, bereavement/ loss, anxiety, bullying,self harm, anger, childhood trauma/inner child work, depression, work related issues, stress, family issues
I have a wide range of counselling experience with both adults and children, and working on a long or short term basis. This includes:3 years community counselling service. Providing counselling to staff in educational establishments. 5 years with the YMCA as part of their Open House Youth Counselling. 6 years experience working at educational establishments from primary to university education.
