I bring you a broad therapeutic range spanning life changes, loss, work difficulties, IVF, stillbirth, miscarriage and birth trauma, stress, anxiety and depression and personal growth. I also offer a richness and diversity of professional experience gained over 26 years as a Senior Accredited counsellor.
Unexpected gifts of insight often happen when you are working on something in counselling with me. My style of working helps you to discover how you truly feel about your everyday experiences, and it supports you in making the connections between how your life is in the here and now and how it may link to the past. You'll have the space to consider why your life has become the way it is, and how you would see it in your mind's eye if you could be leading the kind of life that was much more 'you'. You may want to move from a state of disconnection from yourself to a state of acceptance of who you are, and who you can become.
My style of working, my philosophy of counselling, comes from believing that you are a person of worth – both in the times you want to grow and change, and in the times you don’t, when a day under the duvet may beckon. I’ll be here to listen to you and honour you when you are struggling with yourself, the choices ahead of you, or the opinions of others – the times when all your instincts are telling you to tread an unknown path.
As human beings, we often discover something precious when we begin to see our very same life, but with different eyes. So it was for the Queen of Naples when she found the relics of Pompeii under a backyard garden she was pottering in. The same happened for a Bedouin boy who found the Dead Sea Scrolls while he was looking for a lost goat. The demands of daily living may have obscured your treasures. Talking together in counselling, we can come to know the hidden jewels of strength already within you, and how to use these in the future.
