About me and my therapy practice
I am an integrative counsellor which means I draw from several counselling models as appropriate to support you in the best way possible.
I work online via a zoom call and in person in Edinburgh area.
I have a Diploma in Counselling and am trained in online and telephone counselling, engaging in regular Continuous Professional Development including in bereavement, trauma and autism.
Practice description
Do you need a safe, caring, confidential space to explore what is troubling you? I understand how it can be difficult to share struggles with another safely and openly. It can be difficult to properly grasp the impact of childhood or life events in isolation. Sometimes our reactions are born out of previous pain. We sometimes need to be truly heard, understood and accepted.
In counselling you are met with compassion, unconditional positive regard and empathy to unpack and explore with kindness what has affected you or another. Counselling can provide insight, a way forward, bringing hope, clarity and healing.
It involves meeting either weekly or fortnightly, usually at the same day and time. We can work together for a few weeks or longer term. As the relationship of trust between us grows, a space is created for healing and processing difficult experiences and circumstances. There is no shame in admitting some professional help might be helpful. I have found it often creates shifts, gradually transforming what was dark into a new light.
I have worked with a variety of issues in addition to those listed so it is still worth getting in touch to discuss.
My first session
I offer an initial free, no obligation 15 minute telephone or zoom call to discuss how I can support you and to give you the opportunity to decide if I'm the right fit for you.
We will then meet for a fuller initial appointment. We make a contract around our work which covers data protection, fees and confidentiality. We will review our work regularly and you are free to end counselling at any point.
Please drop me an email or text enquiry and I will get back to you as soon as possible. Website to follow.
