My philosophy
I believe the key to overcoming pain and conflict, be it current or historical, is understanding yourself. Understanding your feelings, thoughts, responses and reactions leads to greater self-awareness. This in turn enables you to manage and regulate your emotions resulting in better communication, relationships and ultimately greater happiness. By objectively examining the beliefs, thoughts and feelings you have about yourself you can begin to discover how they developed, how they are affecting you now and what, if anything, you would like to change. Together we gently challenge your beliefs, responses and thought processes to uncover, challenge and resolve the discomfort you are experiencing now.
What I offer
I offer a confidential and non-judgemental space for you to talk and be heard. I provide you with the opportunity to think about, process and reflect on anything and everything that is impacting you. The impact may be mild or severe or anywhere in between.
I have worked with people who have been affected by anxiety, depression, bereavement and loss, low self-esteem and relationship issues.
​
During the sessions you set the agenda and the pace. My style is collaborative, supportive and tailored to your history, experiences and individual needs.
What next?
You can contact me by email or by phone, I endeavour to respond within one working day, to arrange a free 15-to-30-minute phone call to explore whether I am a suitable counsellor for you, this also gives you an opportunity to ask any questions you might have.
