"You don't have to be falling apart to be helped by therapy. Your emotional well-being is vital to the quality of your life and the quality of the lives of the people you care about. Making the call is a sign of strength and health." this quote by Lori Gottlieb speaks to all of us in these times of uncertainty.
Making the decision to have counselling can be unnerving at first. There are so many different approaches and ways of working, so finding the right therapist can feel challenging. I believe that the relationship between client and counsellor is the most important start in therapy. I work cooperatively with clients to assist them in finding their own paths to personal development and positive change.
It can be hard to grapple with our problems alone and even harder when we are faced with so much uncertainty. If you feel that you are struggling at the moment please feel free to contact me.

About me and my therapy practice
Working Together.
I offer a supportive space to enable you to reflect on your work with your clients, who may include children and young people as well as adults. The aim is to develop a collaborative working alliance to enable you to explore your thoughts, feelings, interventions, and experiences around your client work without judgment. As a result, the outcomes to '...improve the quality of your work, transform client relationships, continuously develop yourself and your practice' (Hawkins & Shohet) would hopefully be our joint endeavour.
I am a humanistic practitioner and in supervision, I take an interest in not only developing self-awareness and one's internal supervisor but also in encouraging and supporting the practice of self-care. I use the CLEAR model as well as the Seven-Eyed model of supervision; I also work within the guidelines of the BACP Ethical Framework and Guidance for Good Practice. I am committed to anti-discriminatory practices, including matters of race and inequality.
