Find Your Concern
Lost your way due
to a difficult situation?
Welcome to my individuals and couples counselling service. It often takes for some people to wait until they feel at their lowest emotional point where they are struggling to function and undertake the simplest of tasks wondering, "whats the point?" before they make a call to someone for help. This can be a scary time, having faith that a stranger can help when no-one else was able to. From experience I believe that the success of the therapeutic relationship and process relies on you finding the right person to work with who enables you to speak openly and help you to feel safe, respected and empowered for change. Someone you can trust. Many people have worked with me over the years wanting support to deal with debilitating and often life changing feelings and situations such as, anxiety, anger, depression, low confidence, burnout, self harming, mistrust, loss and bereavement, menopause, the Transgender process, surviving rape and abuse, an Autism or ADHD diagnosis and struggling with social interactions and feeling misunderstood and alone. I focus on offering a non- judgemental space where I not only listen to clients but really hear them by asking relevant questions and observing cues to understand their internal struggles and narratives, which they may find difficult to articulate verbally. As your counsellor, we can work together in a safe environment to explore in-depth and help you to understand why you felt challenged, to establish coping strategies and change and to reduce the impact and the chance of the same problems repeating themselves.

According to Dr Bruce Lipton, a cellular biologist at Stanford Medical School, “95% of all illness is caused by stress!” As proven mental health support can significantly improve your emotional and physical wellbeing. Quantitative outcome measures completed by my clients at the start and end of the therapeutic process, namely Core 10, PHQ9 and GAD7 are showing real evidence that they are finding the work helpful in gaining positive and real change with issues around depression, anxiety and stress.
Clients say:
Being listened to and able to talk in a confidential, warm, trusting environment and encouraged to challenge their thinking has really helped them.
