Welcome A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. About me and my therapy practice  I am an experienced accredited psychotherapist/counsellor, registered with IAHIP, IACP and BACP. I adhere to their codes of ethics and practice.   I have a wealth of experience gained over the past 25 years as a trainer and supervisor, whilst maintaining a private practice throughout.   My approach is Humanistic and integrative, and I work using elements of person-centred, Gestalt therapy, Body work and Inner Child work as appropriate. It is important that we find a way that feels right and supportive for you.   I believe in a whole person approach, which takes the interactions between the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of ourselves into consideration. We learn more about our emotional landscape by listening to the body. The mind and body are not separate. The body knows and holds our truth.   Opportunities for growth and transformation   I aim to provide a safe, confidential, non-judgemental and supportive environment built on trust and respect. Talking with someone and being heard can be hugely beneficial. When we have the support that we require we can heal and grow.   It is often easier to talk about life issues with someone who is completely impartial and will maintain confidentiality. A safe, confidential therapy space in which to talk and be listened to can be the first step to a deeper, more compassionate understanding of yourself. Every journey starts with a single step.   In this therapy space you can expect to be accepted as you are, with empathy and without judgement, and for me to be open and genuine with you. Together, we can discover the gift that is you, helping you to heal your past, to find balance and to live your truth.  Therapy is primarily a dialogue in which I am a companion journeying alongside you to increase your awareness and uncover new possibilities and ways of being. My aim is to help you make sense of the past, live in the present and have hope for the future in ways that are meaningful for you, providing you with new choices.    Counselling is not about me giving you the solutions; I aim to use my experience and training for you to find these for yourself. You are your own expert therefore I'm here to help you empower yourself. Giving yourself some time to be heard is one of the most kind and bravest things you can do for yourself.   For more information about me and the psychotherapy and counselling that I offer, please visit the contacts page.  Practice description  I believe the key to therapy is the relationship; together we can build one of trust and respect.  I offer both long-term or short-term therapy, depending on your needs, on a weekly or fortnightly basis. Sessions last 50-minutes and will be arranged for a time that suits you, usually on the same day and time but I am also flexible in this regard.  When you decide it is time to stop the sessions, we will aim to end in a way that feels supportive and appropriate for you.  Arranging the first session and what to expect  I offer a free brief introductory call of 20 minutes, either via WhatsApp or Zoom, with no obligation. This gives you the opportunity to ask any questions you have, see if you would like to work with me and I can get a sense of what you are looking for. If we do decide to work together, we can then discuss the terms of our sessions further.  Online  I work on-line using Zoom or WhatsApp. Further guidance on accessing online therapy will be emailed to you once you have arranged your first session.
