About me and my therapy practice

I offer counselling tailored to your needs, I work creatively to enable you to explore you difficulties enabling you to explore your thoughts and feelings and current circumstances to be able to make the desired changes you feel you want to make (this may mean giving home tasks to help you embed any new changes you have made at this present time). I offer a "no rush"  experience were I offer empathic and non-judgemental listening with a focus on what you are finding difficult - counselling is confidential but their are some occasions were  a mental health profession - may need to be contacted in the interests of your safety- this would be discussed with you before this was discussed - say for example with your GP. - I am bound  by the ethical code of BACP to work safely and keep you safe at all times.
