About me and my therapy practice
Are you ready to start the journey of self discovery, find solutions to your problems and to become the best version of yourself?
My aim is to help you work through the difficulties and challenges that may bring you here. I will help you explore what causes these and what may help you to bring about the change you want or need.
Due to my knowledge and personal experiences I aim to connect with you on a deep empathetic level where you will feel safe, valued, listened to and understood.
Practice description
Having trained in integrative therapy, I am able to offer a blend of modalities to suit the individual and their needs.
Although I am an integrative counsellor I believe that Person Centred therapy is the foundation upon which all other effective therapy techniques can be carried out. I believe that it is the relationship between myself as the counsellor and you as the client that is key and that once a trusting relationship is formed, effective work can be carried out.
Empathic understanding, Congruence (genuineness) and Unconditional Positive Regard (Non-Judgemental position) are at the heart of my approach.
I have experience in a wide range of difficulties to include low self esteem, anxiety, depression, relationship breakups, addiction, bereavement and loss.
My first session
I offer a free 20 minute introductory zoom session during which I will go through the Assessment Form with you and can make an initial connection. After this time, I will email you over my contract and we will look to arrange a regular time and day for weekly sessions moving forward.
