As an experienced counsellor I provide emotional support, working with clients to find meaning and direction in their lives.
People tell me I am a good listener and have a calm and reassuring voice. Would YOU like to feel properly listened to, in a caring and genuine way, without the sense of being judged ?
I began training when my children had grown up and after twenty five years spent restoring & remodelling old buildings. My interests include: people, the planet and everything artistic. Recently I have experienced positive catharsis through writing songs, playing in a band and participating in a local drama group.
Do you dream of realizing an unfulfilled ambition ? Would you like to be having more fun ?
I support young men with identifying & exploring feelings and emotional needs, releasing blocked energy, developing personal power, self compassion and autonomy. Examples of recent client-centered projects include :
Dealing with mother, father, sibling and wider family issues
Finding, exploring and developing relationships
Role-play rehearsal for job / college / university interview
How to build confidence
Getting funky with creativity
Getting started playing an instrument
Find the right career path / way forward for you
Learning how to do great woodwork
And.. much much more !

As a professionally qualified practitioner, I offer you acceptance, confidentiality and unconditional positive regard at all times.
