About me and my therapy practice
I am an experienced qualified Accredited counsellor/psychotherapist and offer affordable rates. I adhere to the BACP ethical framework and their code of practice. I work with individuals and couples from all different backgrounds developing a greater awareness of self.
I work from a integrative perspective, looking how past experiences, behaviours might shape and influence our thinking in regards to both our present relationships with others and in our relationships with ourselves and our own personal, spiritual and/or our cultural identities. Whether your problems are identifiable or confusing, counselling can help you deal with emotions that are difficult to understand, giving you fresh insight into your life in order to find the best way forward.
Practice description
I offer a safe private, confidential, non-judgemental space to explore your thoughts and feelings and happy to work according to your needs.
I have experience of working within the NHS, charity sectors, drug and alcohol services, emergency services, EAP's alongside private practice equipping clients with a range of tools and techniques to help manage anxiety/depression in a safe confidential setting and whilst training in a doctors surgery.
