Presenting Issues
I am truly passionate about supporting clients through the most challenging chapters of their lives, supporting to navigate life transitions that can come unexpectedly or have been building up for years. In my counselling practice, I have experience with a range of issues, including childhood trauma, self-harm, depression, anxiety, bereavement, relationship difficulties, personal confidence and self-esteem, living with dementia or other significant health diagnoses (along with empowering support for carers), abuse, emotional eating, self-defeating behaviours, negative thought patterns, self-sabotaging actions, parenting hurdles, anger management, emotional dysfunction, and burnout. I am committed to working with clients if a diagnosis of ADHD or ASD is present or not. I always with you first and foremost as a unique individual.
Counselling Modalities
I am trained as an integrative counsellor, which enables me to function effectively as a Humanistic counsellor while employing various therapeutic modalities, including Psychodynamic, Existential, Gestalt, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Person-Centered Experiential (PCE), Brief Solution-Focused Therapy (BSFT), and Somatic interventions. I adopt a trauma-informed approach and consistently provide mindfulness and regulatory exercises to create and maintain a safe, calm environment for my clients.
Your progress is dependent on our working relationship which is top priority. I encourage your involvement with identifying goals, blockages and challenges you may face. I am also a qualified Hypnotherapist; which for some clients can provide a valuable extension to my tool kit.
The importance of choosing a Counsellor who is registered in the UK –
‘Counsellors and psychotherapists are one of the largest healthcare professions not regulated by law. The title of ‘counsellor’ is not protected so anyone can set up a practice and call themselves Counsellor or Psychotherapist.‘
Being on a professional and transparent register ‘provides an extra level of reassurance for your clients. It shows them that you’ve met demanding standards in education, training, competence, and professional conduct.‘
