About me

Do you struggle to live in the moment? Overthink? Worry about what others think of you and your Choices? Do you want to care less and live more, find yourself and crack on with life?

We all go through some tough stuff at times and counselling is a great way of untangling problems or dealing with unwanted thoughts and feelings aswell as helping you learn about you. Counselling enables you to explore what is going on in your life right now and perhaps what has gone before to bring you to this point.

I offer an initial  telephone conversation to allow you to decide if you are happy for us to work together, as I believe finding the right therapist for you benefits you. We work together at your pace without judgement and in confidence* in our counselling space tailored for comfort and in depth conversation if that's what you need.

I am approachable, down to earth and a bit different. I'd like my clients to learn something new about themselves and hopefully obtain some tools and life skills to help clarify where they are at the moment and where they want to be. 

- Anxiety               - Relationships

- Stress                  - Self-awareness

I began my counselling journey by undertaking counselling myself and upon feeling more like me, I become a volunteer; progressing into facilitating groupwork and eventually counselling. 

I have since been a counsellor in a doctors surgery and more recently with staff in schools as well as offering Lego intervention to children.

I work as a counsellor for Gamcare, working with problem gambling related issues. Please see https://www.gamcare.org.uk/?cn-reloaded=1 for further information. 

I facilitate groupwork organised and developed by the Elements team and also more recently we have been delivering these to the service users at Surestart.
