About me and my therapy practice

I am an integrative therapist working through online video counselling. I work in a non-judgmental, supportive and down to earth way. I am happy to adapt how I work to ensure you feel supported while exploring your issues and experiencing change. I can provide time and space for you to think about your life and what you want out of it.

I am interested in how our past can affect our present experience and relationships. And how our ways of coping with life and emotions may no longer be helping in the present. I believe that therapy can help us experience our emotions and feelings in a way that is based in reality, leading to a more fulfilling experience of everyday life.

Practice description

Life can be challenging. Sometimes we can be depressed, anxious or feel something isn鈥檛 quite right with the way we are in the world. Our emotions and feelings can overwhelm us, and life becomes difficult to enjoy. We may feel that our past experiences affect how we live now. Something may feel 鈥榦ff鈥� within our relationships with families, friends, work colleagues or lovers 鈥� or even the relationship with have with ourselves. We may feel stuck in one place unable to change full of frustration and anger. I believe that the counselling can provide the time, space and relationship for you to discover and experience the change you need.

I am happy to speak to anyone over 18 on any issue you want to discuss. I work within the 麻豆原创 ethical framework and I am working towards accreditation. I work in a way that recognises how our race, class, gender or any other difference may affect how we see ourselves, our relationships and how we express our emotions within our communities.

I am interested in working with LGBTQ+ and people that experience GRSD (gender, relationship and sexual difference). I work in an affirmative way from within this community. I have experience working with LGBTQ+/GRSD people of all ages and at all stages of life.

My first session

Our first session will be an informal assessment where we will discuss your what has brought you to therapy and what you would like to get out of the process. We will also discuss our counselling agreement which let us know what to expect from each other while we work together. If you decide to continue working with me then we can discuss the length of our time together. I am happy to work within a 12 week time scale, but also happy to offer longer term relationship if you feel this is what you need. Future sessions will be lead by whatever issues you what discuss.
