About me and my therapy practice
Hello and welcome. I am an integrative counsellor offering a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space where you can feel truly heard and understood. With ongoing experience working within the NHS and a local bereavement charity, I aim to meet you with empathy and compassion which I believe is a powerful starting point for change.
My role is to support you, offering warmth, empathy and a gentle challenge to help you explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences at your own pace. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed or navigating a difficult period of change, I work with you at your pace, staying true to your values.
Practice description
My approach is collaborative, rooted in person-centred theory, with a focus on nurturing a therapeutic relationship. I hope to support you to reflect on your inner world with kindness, and resilience, in a space where you feel safe enough to be your true self. I aim to support you in this process to embrace meaningful change and navigate life's challenges.
It can often take a great deal of courage to reach out to a therapist. So, if you would like to contact me for a free consultation please do get in touch.
My first session
Our first session will be an opportunity to explore your reasons for seeking out therapy in the first place, we will look at your life in context and I may take some notes about significant dates and names-any notes that I take remain anonymous.
It will also be an opportunity for you to ask me any questions about sessions and how I work and what you can expect from therapy.
We will discuss some administrative issues such as how my work complies with the Âé¶¹Ô´´ code of ethics.
