Experience
I have a range of experience, including working with Anxiety, GAD, Depression, Low Self Esteem, Panic Attacks, Trauma, Addiction, Loss and Bereavement, work-related and life issues.
I have worked on a counselling foundation degree, ran a Personal Development Group, and taught Ethics and Reflective Practice. Both of these fields are particularly important to me.
Counselling
During our time together, we will uncover ways to help you live a happier, healthier and sustainable life.
I recognise that every person is unique, a sum of their own life’s experiences and relationships.
We will work collaboratively, creating a safe space, within which you can be open and honest, with complete confidentiality.
We will take an integrated approach, exploring and discussing the different techniques that we try, and responding to what works for you.
