If you are feeling anxious or unhappy, it can be a real relief talking to someone who will listen without judgement. I am a professionally qualified person-centred counsellor with several years experience and I will work side by side with you, always at your own pace and always checking my own understanding of what is happening for you, so YOU feel understood. You may be mourning the loss of a loved one, be struggling within a relationship, an addiction or paralysed by depression, anxiety or major life changes. Whatever is causing you distress can lie heavily upon your life and yes, making the decision to see someone like me is sometimes not an easy one, but any uncomfortable feelings usually rapidly disappear within the first few minutes. Research has shown that the relationship between therapist and client is at the heart of any successful therapeutic outcome so it is important that you feel able to trust and work with me so our initial consultation will help you decide whether or not you feel I am right for you. Sometimes I will make a referral if I believe it would be more beneficial to the client. For many people, 1-6 sessions are enough to make a real difference but sometimes, longer term counselling is more appropriate

Some of the issues I have worked with include:

Bereavement

Addictions (alcohol and drugs)

Self harm

Depression

Life Crises

Relationship issues

Eating disorders

Domestic Violence

Anger

Abuse

Self esteem
