Many people come to counselling because they can't understand why they think or feel like they do. Maybe you feel misunderstood or unheard or anxious a lot of the time. Maybe you are down or depressed and possibly struggling to see the point sometimes. Has something happened or changed in your life that you are struggling to make sense of. You may have lost someone or something and are finding it hard to come to terms with. Whatever is troubling you I will provide a trusted, accepting and safe space that where we will work towards your acceptance and understanding of yourself. Whatever you are experiencing, be it anxiety, depression, grief, shame or something else, the causes are often linked to our relationships. It is hardly surprising that one of the key aspects of successful counselling is the relationship between you and your counsellor. To honour this principle I have no minimum or maximum number of sessions and any sessions, subsequent to our initial one, are booked only after your reflection and only if it feels right for you. I have completed a Diploma and a BA Honours Degree in integrative counselling and, as a member of the BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy), I strictly adhere to BACP's ethical framework (moral code). Please call or email to discuss booking an initial session with no commitment to ongoing sessions. I offer short-term and long-term counselling allowing you to budget, work within a time frame or we can work open ended if that feels more appropriate.
