ABOUT
I believe that finding the right counsellor is an important first step towards feeling supported, understood and heard.
As a qualified counsellor and registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP), I offer a confidential and compassionate space where you can explore whatever difficulties you may be facing.
I have a BSc (Hons) in counselling and over 30 years of experience working as a nurse within the NHS. This has given me a particular understanding of the emotional impact of cancer, chronic illness, palliative care, and grief and bereavement.
I am also a CERTIFIED GRIEF EDUCATOR having proudly completed the David Kessler and Grief.com training.
My approach is warm, empathetic and non-judgmental. I believe that everyone deserves to feel listened to, respected and supported, particularly during life's difficult moments.
COUNSELLING
Clients I work with:
Adults and young people over the age of 16
How I deliver sessions:
Face to face, home visits, online and telephone sessions are all available.
Sessions are not time limited meaning you can have therapy for as long as you feel it is beneficial.
Counselling offers you a safe, confidential and supportive space where you can talk openly about whatever is troubling you, without fear of judgement.
I believe that the relationship between counsellor and client is at the heart of successful therapy. Building trust, offering empathy an truly listening are central to the way I work.
Grief, bereavement, cancer and illness.
I have a particular interest in supporting people experiencing grief and bereavement, as well as those affected by cancer, chronic illness and other health related challenges.
Whether you are grieving the death of someone you love, coming to terms with a diagnosis, or struggling with the emotional impact of your illness, you don't have to face these experiences alone.
Other areas I can support you with.
I also offer counselling for anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, work-related stress, trauma, anger and other challenges that may be affecting your emotional wellbeing.
There is no expectation to have everything worked out before you come to counselling. We can explore what matters to you at your own pace.
