About me and my therapy practice
We are not usually taught how to manage emotional difficulties we experience going through life. Life events can deeply wound us and it's hard to bear difficult feelings on our own. We can be our own worst enemy and talk to ourselves critically and harshly, causing more anxiety. I'm committed to helping you to build emotional resilience, self confidence and self compassion.
I have had experience working for the NHS and currently work in a University. I take BUPA, private healthcare and EAP referrals.
- Short-term therapy is effective for focusing on a particular problem and, working towards a solution.
- Long term therapy is recommended for experiences of trauma and abuse as it's important that you have time to feel safe and build a sense of trust. I have a lot of experience working long term with clients.
When counselling, I will work professionally, confidentially and therapeutically. I'll help you to identify the goals you want to work towards and focus on your problems and work towards a solution. I'll help you to look towards the future and put in place resources to support you with any problems that may occur. Sometimes, clients want to talk about very significant past events such as abuse or trauma. Counselling gives you a safe, contained and non-judgemental space to do just that. I have a lot of experience working with these difficulties.Counselling allows you to hear your life story and I will support and help you understand and get to grips with your past and help you to look forward, and to make changes and to live a more content life. I have over 11 years experience working with a wide range of problems including - low self-confidence, self-criticism, depression, sadness, anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, bereavement, childhood abuse, sexual abuse, social anxiety, health anxiety, death anxiety, panic, and excessive worrying.
