Counselling

for couples and individuals

I work with couples and individuals so they may gain self-awareness and understanding.

 

I can help you relate to people and the world around you in a way which is meaningful to you.

 

My clients say that I am warm, approachable and easy to work with.

What to expect

Whether you're looking for short or long term individual therapy or relationship counselling, I can help you navigate difficult feelings, thoughts or behaviours. My experience working with Tavistock Relationships means I can provide a framework for couples counselling that is non-judgemental and focused on improving communication.  

What happens

Anchor 2

The first therapy session

The first session gives you the opportunity to get a sense of how we may work together. I will talk about my approach to therapy and answer any questions you may have. At the end of the session we agree to work together or you may choose to think things over in your own time.

Subsequent sessions

We’ll usually meet at the same time each week. Therapy will give you the opportunity to share what's on your mind and explore any feelings you may have.

Getting the most from your counselling

You may just want to feel better, take new decisions or make changes to your life. We’ll have reviews to ensure you are getting what you want from our sessions and that the therapy is proving useful to you.

How many sessions?

You may find that a short series of sessions is enough to help you through a difficult time. Or you may feel longer term therapy will be more useful to address deep-seated issues and concerns, perhaps arising from childhood.

Paying for sessions

You can pay for sessions by online banking or cash.

About me

I have acquired more than ten years experience working in social care; providing family support and therapeutic interventions to adults, parents and families.

My initial career was within theatre working as a director and a performer. As well as delivering professional theatre workshops, I also taught drama in further education. My work within theatre and education has enabled me to develop skills in enhancing and supporting the creative potential of others.

 

Following my work in theatre, I spent a number of years deputy managing an adventure playground for children with special needs. This provided many wonderful moments for me to get in touch with the human capacity to embrace spontaneity, pursue joy and to be free. My experience in adventure playgrounds allows me confidence to provide a free and creative space for my clients to explore their thoughts and feelings.

Alongside my career as a therapist, I work in the voluntary sector as a Group Leader on a therapeutic group programme for couples experiencing relationship problems. I am a Clinical Supervisor for the Parents as Partners Programme (Tavistock Relationships).
