Counsellor/Psychotherapist - NCPS (Acc.)

I offer counselling for a range of mental health issues such as anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties.  My approach is compassionate, empathetic and non – judgemental, allowing space for you to explore things at your own pace.  Sometimes we can get to point where we feel overwhelmed, burnt out or feel very low in ourselves and not our full self.  Counselling can help to get back to who you are, resolve difficult emotions or past traumas and gain a different perspective.

I have experience of working with clients involving the following issues:

·      Bereavement

·      Work stress/burnout

·      Relationship difficulties

·      Anxiety/attachment disorders

·      Trauma

·      Depression

·      Low self-esteem and confidence

·      Life changes

I am an Integrative counsellor trained in the three main modalities of therapy (CBT, Person centred and Psychodynamic) and can adapt to suit your preferred approach or issue.  I take a person-centred approach combined with psychodynamic, however I have also experience with using Cognitive Behavioural interventions for clients that had severe anxiety, emetophobia or depression and that have requested this form of therapy.  If you would prefer a more directive approach, then this can be discussed in the initial call where we can find out how I can best help you. 

I am a member of the NCPS (National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society), an ethical body with a code of ethics for practicing counsellors.

I have worked in schools as a counsellor, currently work in an NHS hospital as a counsellor supporting NHS staff, and private practice. 

I work with adults of all ages, and my fee is £60 per session.  Please reach out to me if you would like to schedule an introductory call.
