About me

I am trained and experienced in leading evidence-based therapeutic approaches and can formulate non-prescriptive treatment planning to meet your unique problems and assist you in achieving a genuine and sustainable progress. My style is warm and collaborative, creating a trusting space to clarify issues central to you or aspects of your life that are problematic or confusing.

I suggest an initial consultation which gives you chance to see how you feel about working together and explore what you want to get from counselling. After the initial session, should you want to go ahead, we can plan how to proceed and either structure a number of sessions for short-term counselling or begin open-ended therapy. On commencing therapy we will review our progress at regular intervals, both reflecting on work and re-evaluating goals together should it be necessary.

Research demonstrates that the most effective outcomes are based on the quality of the relationship between client and therapist. Therapy will focus on building on your strengths and reconnecting you with your resources, allowing you to make better, safer choices and meet the challenges in your life.
