Welcome

Photo of me Feb 2017Hallo!

For all sorts of reasons life can feel tough. And sometimes we need to find someone outside of our friends, family or partner to talk to.

I have long experience of working with people one-to-one in different contexts, experience which I draw on now in my counselling.  The  approach I use itself draws on different models  so that I can use whatever seems most appropriate and useful to you.

I  have worked with people struggling with many different difficulties eg depression, anxiety, anger, suicidal thoughts, sexual and emotional abuse, self-harm, social unease, grief …..or a general sense of something just not being right. And the people I have counselled have come from different walks of life as well as from religious and ethnic minorities.

Deciding  on the ‘right’ counsellor can feel  a bit daunting so I offer the first session free. This gives you a chance for us to meet and for you to see what that is like for you.
