Personal Statement

I see my role as a Counsellor as helping you reduce the emotional distress that may be arising for you as a result of experiences and life events.

In our conversations we would look at why you have come and what you would like to achieve. I will ask you about your life and the circumstances you find yourself in. Together we will explore what’s been happening and how the events in your life and past have shaped how you are dealing with it currently. We will begin to understand your difficulties better and see what changes may need to be made in order for you to make changes that will help you move on in your life.

I offer counselling as a resource which you can access in accordance with your needs. Frequency of sessions would be agreed together.

If you would like to work on a particular aspect of yourself or your life and you think that weekly counselling would be beneficial for you, then we can arrange a certain number of sessions either for an agreed period of time or on an open-ended basis if you would like to work longer-term.
