Sometimes it feels as though you have a huge mountain to climb on your own and you can't see the wood for the trees. It's a scary step to acknowledge that you need counselling and an even scarier step to pick up the phone, but a small investment of your time can make a big difference to the quality of your life.
I have been in practice since 1997 seeing individuals and couples. As a senior BACP accredited practitioner, I specialise in short and long term work for all emotional issues, including relationship issues, addiction (drug and alcohol), stress, work-place problems, bullying, depression, bereavement, trauma, anxiety, eating disorders, and abuse.

Services
My counselling career originally began with voluntary work after pursuing a commercial career and running my own business. Finding this voluntary work very rewarding, I made a personal decision to pursue counselling as a full-time occupation. Since then, my work has spanned working for various charities, firstly providing long-term therapy for adults under two local authority funded agencies.
Many people don't know what to expect from counselling. My approach is to help you explore your thoughts and feelings, developing coping techniques together when appropriate. I believe in working together with a client in a collaborative supportive relationship exploring the current problem or set of symptoms which have brought them to seek counselling now.
Surprisingly some people say they can cope better than they could before after relatively few sessions. Others may feel they have longer-term issues which they may decide to spend time working on. Nothing is set in stone and it's about catering for your individual needs. Cancellations need to be made at least 24 business hours in advance of your appointment or a charge for the full appointment fee will be incurred.
