I am an experienced integrative counsellor registered with BACP. I offer clients' a safe relationship in which to explore anything that is troubling them, feelings of upset and distress, problems with thoughts, relationships with others, or behaviour. Maybe a sudden life crisis such as bereavement, job loss or lack of direction.

My therapy is an integration of  Psychodynamic, Person Centered, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy which is tailored to the client rather than the client having to fit into one mode of therapy.

 (Please check the links below for more information on these different types of therapeutic approaches).

Person Centred, Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy  

My counselling practice is mainly centred around clients who have relationship issues, anger management, suffered bereavement,  maybe dealing with addiction or depression.
