Special interest areas

I find myself interested in trauma related work and what this brings in terms of anxiety to clients, also bereavement and loss is an area I find myself working.

Personal Statement

I primarily began in a Person Centred approach but over the years I have integrated other approaches, so draw on experience to help me work with individuals and their personal needs. Being Person Centred means I am non-directive, it is not my role to give you avice, but to help you explore what has brought you to this point in your life. This will help you to make the right decisions for yourself.

 

My aim is to provide a safe and warm space where clients can relax. I will use empathy to do my best to understand your world. I will not judge you, I will endeavour to meet you where you are emotionally and support you with meeting your needs in therapy.
