How can I help you?
I can offer you a safe space, where you can be listened to and understood, free from judgement
Life can be hard and challenging at times for all of us, and finding the space to work out how you are experiencing the world can be difficult; some things are hard to say out loud to family and friends.
I can offer you a safe, respectful, friendly, and confidential space, free from judgement, where you can be listened to and understood, and explore your concerns by talking to someone removed from the situation.
I am committed to developing a trusting relationship between us where you can feel comfortable to delve into your feelings and emotions and gain a better understanding of yourself.
Everyone is unique, and therefore I will work with you to establish your desired outcomes from therapy. We can regularly review this and tailor how we work together based on your needs.
Counselling may quickly help you, or it may be longer-term, but again, as our work proceeds, we can review how beneficial you are finding it.
Bereavement & Loss
We all suffer significant loss and bereavement in life. I can provide a private space to process your grief, what the loss means to you, and how to adjust to your world without your loved one.
Relationships
Relationships can be difficult at times; we can work to explore your relationships with significant others in your life and what you would like them to look like.
Anxiety
Anxiety is a normal part of life, but it can become overwhelming. We can work to explore where your anxiety comes from and find ways to restore your ability to cope in challenging situations.
Depression
I can provide a safe space to talk through your difficulties and help you to make sense of your world, improving your emotional wellbeing and resilience.
Self Esteem
Having a negative view of yourself can have a large impact on how you live your life. We can explore how you relate to yourself and empower you to live a life true to your values and beliefs.
Life Transitions
Major life transitions can be unsettling as we enter unknown territory. Together we can work through your different options and help regain a sense of purpose.
Substance misuse recovery
I have a particular interest in helping people who are in recovery from substance abuse. It is a courageous decision to stop using substances which you previously used to help manage life, and I recognise that living clean and sober is not always easy.
Is your life affected by a person's drinking or substance misuse? I also work with the family and friends of people who are living with the impact of substance abuse in someone close to them.
