Practice description
My training is Counselling and Psychotherapy and I adapt my approach to meet my clients need, I will work with what is happening for you in the moment whilst gently exploring connections this may have to the past. Through exploring childhood experiences related to attachment it can often be uncovered how these events are impacting clients in the here and now. I am trained and experienced in attachment theory and find that this often manifests in my work with clients both in their inner world and their relationships with others. Counselling sessions provide an opportunity to form a secure and safe bond with another skilled listener which allow space for relational issues to arise and be worked through responsibly. My practice is trauma informed and I use psychoeducation (educating about the psychological and emotional affects) and grounding techniques to help people work through painful memories with the aim to start the journey of emotional healing. I have training in Cognitive Processing Therapy which I use when working with people who are showing symptoms of PTSD.I am a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy and have DBS checked and insured. I have had in depth safeguarding training and undertake regular CPD to keep my knowledge up to date.
