How I Can Help
I provide counselling to adolescents (14+), where young people can openly discuss their feelings, experiences and any challenges they face. Helping them navigate the ups and downs of life. I focus on empowering adolescents to express themselves and support them find solutions to their challenges. My approach is compassionate, understanding and tailored to each young person’s needs.
I provide face to face adult, as well as couple counselling. I offer a client led approach, where the ethos is recognising the uniqueness of every individual. I feel privileged in joining with clients on a journey of self-discovery and healing. My experience has equipped me with a deep understanding of the complexities of human experiences and the importance of providing personalised support that respects each person’s unique journey. I am passionate and committed to supporting the emotional wellbeing of my clients. I have a real interest in my clients individual situations, and I am skilled in creating a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship to foster empathy, growth and healing.
I have extensive experience working with clients with many presentations, including but not limited to:
Trauma (PTSD)
Anxiety/ feeling overwhelmed
Depression
Addiction
Bereavement, grief and loss
Relationship difficulties/issues
Gaslighting – betrayal trauma
Self-harm
Suicidal thoughts
Stress
Abuse - in all its forms
Lack of self-esteem
Bullying
Starting the journey into counselling can feel a bit overwhelming, however it is an incredibly positive step towards understanding yourself better and finding support in difficult times. I offer the opportunity to reflect on the difficulties or problems you are experiencing in a safe and confidential environment, with someone from outside your day-to-day life.
Together we can explore your situation in a way that leads to fresh perspectives – and perhaps a new understanding of yourself. Counselling isn’t about giving you solutions or advice but empowering you to make your own changes.
Together we will focus on helping you gain deeper insights into yourself and discover your own unique path to healing and growth. You decide on the main focus, the pace and the level of detail you want to go into. The most important factor is that you feel comfortable to talk through your issues with me.
