I am here to help you find your way - with empathy, understanding and an individual approach tailored to your personal needs.
I am an experienced qualified Integrative Psychotherapuetic Counsellor, Hypnotherapist and Holistic/Complementary Therapist. I am a member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society, ,the National Hypnotherapary and the Federation of Holistic Therapists.
I provide a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space in which you can feel supported whilst sharing your feelings. As an integrative counsellor I am able to use various evidence-based techniques to meet your unique needs. I am also able to use theory, whilst connecting to creative techniques.
Working with an integrative approach I can draw on a variety of modalities, which will enable me to help you most effectively. These include Person-Centred, Psychodynamic and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy – CBT.
I believe that Counselling is about empowering ourselves with understanding, so we can better comprehend our feelings, behaviours and reactions. We are then able to change or adapt those that may have been causing us difficulties.
I do not sit with you only from an academic point of view. I believe that human contact, along with understanding, empathy and support, is the key to our well being.
For me, the relationship between client and counsellor is the foundation that therapy is built upon. It is one of trust.
I provide a secure environment where you can speak freely, working through whatever it is that you are struggling with right now. By working together, we can clear the path to a view that is the future you would like for yourself.
I recognise the importance of continuous professional development. My registration requires that I undertake 30 hours of CPD per year. I have regular supervision which enables me to reflect on, and use my clinical experiences, to enhance my learning. Gaining insight into the experiences of clients.
