How can I help?
Therapy can feel extremely vulnerable. It can also feel really enlightening and freeing. I am not here to judge you, analyse you or make assumptions about you - I am here to listen, support you and walk alongside you as we make sense of whatever you are going through together.
I have experience working with a wide-range of issues, including (but not limited to):
-
Addiction
-
Anxiety
-
Anger management
-
Cancer and serious illness
-
Child loss and separation
-
Criminal justice and rehabilitation
-
Domestic abuse
-
Family dynamics
-
Grief and bereavement
-
Low self-esteem
-
Stress
-
Relationship issues
-
Trauma
-
Work-related stress
I am integrative counsellor which means I draw upon different theories to inform my work, depending on your needs as a client. Therapeutic approaches that I use include person-centred, attachment, psychodynamic, transactional analysis and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT).
