About me and my therapy practice
I offer a friendly, non-judgemental counselling approach so together we can explore your issues and help you to feel better.
I have a lot of experience in working with anxiety, low mood, bereavement, overwhelm, low self esteem, trauma and intrusive thoughts.
My basic aim as your counsellor or psychotherapist is to help you feel more in control of your life. Some of my clients leave my sessions armed with effective self-help techniques so that they can manage their problems or distress better. Others come away feeling unburdened from previous issues, sadness and anxieties.
Our counselling will allow you to explore your past and current situation with the aim of deciding upon positive changes for your future and the direction you would like your life to take.
During our sessions, I will share various theories and concepts with you. I often use creative techniques or visual aids.
I particularly work with Transactional Analysis theories and Attachment theories.
I am trained in EMDR and I can weave that into sessions if needed.
My background in counselling:
For a number of years, I managed the counselling function for a city council in Tyne and Wear. During that time I directly provided counselling to over 500 people working in education, social services and corporate departments. Before this, I worked as a psychotherapist at a Women's charity in Northumberland and also as a psychotherapist and counsellor within Newcastle and the NHS.
