As a counsellor my role is to provide space and guidance to help you on your journey of self discovery;
I am a Play Therapist and an accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Psychotherapist, which means I have met rigorous professional standards, demonstrating a high level of training, experience, and ethical practice in my field.

Speak in Confidence
Therapy takes place in a safe space, where you can meet with someone who will listen with sensitivity and empathy – and without judgement. In the therapy space thoughts and feelings can be expressed freely and in confidence.
A problem shared
Trouble with a relationship; anxiety or panic attacks; mood swings or depression – many people face difficulties in their everyday lives that can be hard to get on top of. Therapy gives us a set of tools we can use to help gain a better understanding of what’s causing these problems – and how you can move towards managing or resolving them.
Make better, healthier new choices
Working together I can help you gain greater insight into the difficulties you are facing, help you understand why you act or react to them the way you do, and see how you can start to make better, heathier choices moving forward.
