I am an integrative therapist and an Accredited Member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I work within a person-centred approach, which means building a collaborative therapeutic relationship which is genuine and respectful. I provide a safe, caring and confidential space, working therapeutically with people on a wide range of experiences and issues, past or present. My aim to is to help you make sense of your thoughts and feelings and enable you to access your inner resources and gain a greater sense of your true potential. I listen with empathy and acceptance and, depending on your needs, use a variety of therapeutic techniques and strategies, such as emotional regulation techniques and/or reflective practice to increase awareness of your own needs and how to communicate and act on them.

My Experience
As well as private practice, I also work for a mental health charity which is an NHS Provider. I work with clients from a wide range of social contexts with diverse issues which include: anxiety and depression; low self-esteem; bereavement, including death by suicide; suicidal thoughts; trauma; self-harm; sexuality and gender identity.

Qualifications
Professional Diploma in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy (accredited by the National Counselling Society).

What next
Counselling is a unique experience to connect with another person who will listen with intent and sincerity, and it is important that you find a therapist you feel comfortable with. To help you decide if I am the right therapist for you there are a couple of stages to help you make that decision. Please email or call to make an initial session. An initial session is an opportunity to tell me about your current situation, personal history and your expectations of therapy. It also enables me to describe how I can help you and for you to ask any
questions. After the session, I will encourage you to take a few days to think about whether you would like to continue with further sessions and then let me know.
