✅Welcome!
I'm guessing you're here because life is tough and you've decided that now is the time to get some help getting things back on track. We all have times when we just need a little help and support from someone who can maybe see things from a different perspective. Well I think that's my 'super-power'. Listening without judgement and looking at things with a fresh set of eyes, using experience and knowledge. Helping you to see things differently and supporting you to make the changes to get back to living your best possible life. So take that leap, trust your judgement, come and see me and we'll do this TOGETHER!
My area of special interest is bereavement and grief. I have lots of experience in this area and it's my privilege to help people see the light in their darkest days. I am an experienced bereavement counsellor and have a good understanding of complicated grief and the impact that can have on life. For the last 4 years I have also provided specialist counselling to people experiencing pregnancy and baby loss.
Recently I have been developing a service that offers a different approach to traditional 'block' counselling. This service ('Solo Steps') offers a single session approach, whereby you can work on your immediate problem in just 60 minutes. No pre-assessment, no wait list, no 'easing yourself in'; just a simple 'what issue do you want to work on? What would you like to achieve in 60 minutes?' And off we go.... I think of it as a mental declutter or reset.
[this approach may not be suitable for those experiencing severe or long-standing mental health difficulties, although could offer a new perspective on an 'old problem'] - COMING SOON!
I have experience of working with trauma, anxiety, depression and many other challenges that face us. I work with the whole person, not just the 'label'. Life is complicated and complex. Together we can start to understand and hopefully work through some of the 'tangle'.
I offer a confidential, non-judgemental, safe space to explore issues affecting your life.
Together we'll look at what's happened to bring you to therapy and where you want to be in your life. Then, working together we'll start your journey towards a better life.
