About me

I am a fully qualified and experienced counsellor, offering Face to Face, online and telephone counselling. I also offer Animal Assisted Therapy with my Therapy dog Fudge.

Talking things through with someone neutral who is disconnected from other areas of your life can be extremely helpful, and is often the start of things becoming clearer, thereby bringing about positive change. In my work I offer a safe, confidential and non-judgemental setting, allowing you to safely share and explore any feelings, worries and difficulties that you may have. During counselling I do not give advice on what you should do or how you should be, instead I will guide you in order to find the solutions within yourself.

People seek counselling for a variety of reasons which may include depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties and bereavement; others may dissatisfied with the way life is, without being able to identity a particular problem and this is OK too.

I have a natural empathy with people and like to help with the difficulties and challenges they face. Having had experience of personal counselling I have acknowledged the positive benefits and clarity that it can provide.

I am an accredited member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and offer an integrative approach to counselling. This means that I adopt a range of approaches in order to suit an individual client and their needs, in particular I tend to use a 'person-centred' approach and value the importance of the therapeutic relationship. I believe that every person is unique, each reacting differently with life's challenges, therefore an approach that suits one client may not necessary suit another, and this is where an integrative approach can be ideal.

For more information about me or the way I work please contact me by either phone, email or you can visit my website.

I am accredited member of the BACP and adhere to their code of ethics and principles.
