About Me
My approach
You as an individual knows yourself better than anyone else and are in the best position to know what you want or need. Sometimes it takes a little time and effort to clarify these things. Counselling is a very effective way of doing this.
I will work with you at your pace to support you to explore the person you are and what's troubling you right now. I aim to provide a safe and confidential space for you to explore challenging experiences, thoughts and feelings, always with your wellbeing in mind. Together we can explore how you want to move forward. You will be at the heart of our work.
My training is in person-centred counselling, a humanistic approach. I have particular experience in short term, focussed work.
For the past few years, I have carried out extensive counselling work with CRUSE, the bereavement charity, on a voluntary basis.
I am a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy and adhere to their Ethical Framework for Good Practice.
