My Approach

I am a Humanistic counsellor. I believe in the ability of every individual to grow and develop their potential. We all have the potential within ourselves to grow. In counselling, the relationship between the therapist and the client at its heart helps to unlock that process, which results in being able to manage and overcome difficulties, yet it offers an opportunity for new understanding, increasing self-confidence and improving relationships with others.

In my viewpoint, it is important for counsellors to have a wide life experience in addition to their professional qualifications and experiences.

My experience of working in a varied environment with people from many different cultural backgrounds has enabled me to develop an arsenal of effective skills. Areas that I have the most interest in include: trauma, depression, anxiety, anger issues, panic attacks, loss and bereavement, low self-esteem, shame, abuse and general relationships.

I provide a non-judgemental, warm and confidential environment that can support clients to explore feelings that they are finding difficult to confront, or aspects of their lives that they may desire to better understand. I believe in the ability of every individual to develop their full potential. Developing further understanding of your own thoughts, emotions, and behaviours through a trusting relationship between a client and counsellor enables the client to achieve their goals in life and discover a more meaningful and satisfying way to live.

Together we can create an appropriate space where you will feel safe to explore your emotions without fear.
