About me and my practice

At times, we all need help to reach our full potential. Working together in a supportive and confidential space, without fear of judgement, empowers you to cope with lifes challenges, and achieve acceptance and meaningful and lasting changes.

I am an experienced counsellor, dedicated to clients well-being and growth and work with individuals who experience a range of issues such as bereavement, anxiety, loneliness, traumatic life events, low self-esteem, depression, addiction and relationship difficulties.

Experience

In my work with clients, I draw heavily upon Humanistic theory to provide a foundation for a therapeutic relationship that is empathetic, client-centred, and conducive to personal growth.

My practice is informed by Humanistic principles, emphasising the establishment of a therapeutic frame, my understanding of human nature, psychological distress, the process of change, and the pivotal significance of the therapeutic relationship.

In practical terms, this means that when acknowledging the unique qualities of each of my clients I foster an environment that encourages clients in self-exploration and personal development.

I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where my clients feel empowered to express themselves authentically.

The Humanistic approach emphasizes the therapist's unconditional positive regard, empathy, and genuineness qualities that I integrate into my practice to build trust and rapport with my clients. By valuing and respecting my clients individual subjective experiences, I aim to facilitate a therapeutic journey that aligns with the principles of Humanistic theory.

Qualifications

I am a fully qualified Counsellor with a BA Hons in Counselling and Psychotherapy. I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and hold professional indemnity insurance, an enhanced DBS certificate and am registered with the Information Commissioner's Office.

Additional Information
