About Me

I am a counsellor in England, registered with MNCPS. I offer clinical supervision and confidential counselling for professionals and private clients. I use practical, evidence-based methods to manage work and life stress.

Approach

My training was integrative, which means that it covered several different types of counselling (Person Centred, CBT, Systemic and Psychodynamic). Since qualifying I have completed additional training in Compassion Focused Therapy and Brief Solution Focused Therapy.

Because my training has been varied, I can tailor my way of working to suit your changing needs. Sometimes you might want a place to talk and explore whatever is coming up for you that day, but on other occasions you might want to work with a structured exercise. The most important part of how I work is that it will be led by you, we will talk about what does and does not feel helpful in all our sessions.

I often use creative expressions as part of my own personal development and this was the focus of my Masters research project, so I know that it can be a powerful way of working with difficult thoughts and emotions.

There are lots of ways to work creatively (and none of them require any artistic talent), including working with objects, images, using metaphors and tuning into our bodily feelings. I know that not everyone finds working in this way helpful for them, so although it will be offered it is not the only way I work.

While I have experience of working with a range of issues, I have an interest in working with people at times of change and transition, as well as those who wish to gain a better understanding of their own identities.

As someone with more than one label attached to my identity I know how frustrating it can be to have to educate professionals on what they mean in general before you can even start to talk about your unique experiences. If you're worried that this might be a barrier, please get in touch for a free initial consultation telephone call.

In the waves of change, we find our true direction.

At the points in our lives where we feel likethings are falling apart, we have an opportunity to remake ourselves, to choose the parts we wish to take with us to build our future. whether change comes in the form of life events we do not choose or a concious decsion to move forward, we can be left feeling ou of control, stuck and unsure of how to move forward. Whatever your feelings, having someone alongside can ease the journey.

I can offer you a place to be curious about what changes are possible for you, to explore your past and present so you can make choices about your future. We will work collaboratively to find out how I can best support you. As an integrative counsellor I am trained in a range of styles and I will draw on those that feel most helpful for your journey.
