What I Can Offer

I am a fully qualified and insured counsellor, working within an ethical code of conduct laid down by NCPS. with a very experienced supervisor adding another level of holding and oversight to the work I do, although anonymity of clients is maintained with my supervisor.

During our first session we will create a working agreement and begin to establish the foundations of a safe and reliable relationship.

Change is possible. I cannot fix another’s pain, but I can support, enable and encourage clients in their own journey of deepening understanding and self-acceptance, utilising the skills and experience I have gathered over the years. Mine is a holistic approach, based on the Core Conditions of Person-Centred counselling integrated with a range of other skills including mindfulness, body process, creativity, and awareness of how our conditioned thinking responses can often sabotage our own wellbeing.

This may all sound quite daunting, but a core condition is that we work at the client’s pace and my responses and suggestions are guided by the process unfolding for the client I am with, who is the expert on their own life experience. I am committed to stand alongside clients who seek my help for as long as required, supporting them to find creative answers and the possibility of greater insight and compassion for their own suffering and the suffering of the world.
