Thank you for visiting my website and considering me as your counsellor. I'm here to support you on your journey towards inner peace and personal growth.
A life-changing event introduced me to counselling for the first time. Aftern the sudden loss of a loved one, I found navigating my grief deeply challenging. Being offered a safe space to explore my experience, emotions and feelings in confidentiality allowed me a path to healing. Counselling made a profound impact on my life, so much so in fact, that I trained to become a counsellor. As a mature counsellor, I bring the richness of life experiences to my practice, whether this is your first time seeking help or you're continuing on your path to well-being, you are not alone.
Qualifications
My Professional Commitments
To ensure the highest standard of care, I engage in regular supervision with an experienced counselling supervisor, this practice allows me to maintain a healthy and professional approach to my work. I actively seek ongoing professional development opportunities such as workshops and training courses to enhance my skills and knowledge
As a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), Registration Number 409059, I adhere to their ethical framework and regulations, ensuring that our work together is conducted with integrity and professionalism. I also hold full professional indemnity insurance, and hold a clear fully comprehensive DBS barring service check for peace of mind.
Asking for help isn't easy, I spent years thinking that the best way to deal with the feelings brought about life's challenges was to, 'bottle them up' and not talk about them, hoping that eventually they would go away. The reality was that this led to issues with anxiety, low mood, frustration and in extreme cases panic. Sound familiar?
Just as it did for me, counselling could be the key to helping you unlock the root cause of how you are feeling and to help you address the consequences of those feelings once and for all.
Starting counselling can feel daunting, but I am here to create a welcoming and supportive environment for you. Here's what you can expect during our sessions
First Session Overview
In our first session, we'll begin by discussing our working contract. This contract outlines our mutual commitments, ensuring that we establish a safe and confidential space for our work together. I will ask you a few personal questions, such as your address and GP details, along with some questions about how you've been feeling over the last couple of weeks. This initial information will help us identify the specific reasons that has brought you to counselling and clarify what you would like to focus on during our time together.
Ongoing Sessions
Our sessions are open-ended, allowing us to adapt the pace and focus based on your needs. During each session, we will regularly review your progress and any changes in your curcumstances, ensuring that our work remains relevant and effective. Throughout the counselling process, you will have the opportunity to share your thoughts and feelings in a non-judgemental environment, and together we will explore the challenges you face. My goal is to support you in acheiving your personal goals and fostering your well-being.
