- BACP
We are living in a fast-paced, stressful world now. Many of us have learned to get on with life, even through the difficult times. I can understand the hesitations one might have to talk about those times and make the decision to seek support through counselling.
I am a naturally warm, non-judgemental and caring counsellor and will listen carefully to what may trouble you and support you to move towards personal growth and change. We would work at your own pace on issues you would choose in a safe and confidential space.
I can work flexibly with you according to your needs and circumstances upon request. I have so far five years of professional experience working in mental health services and three of these years of successful counselling work with adults and young people.
How I work - in a person-centred and relational way where the relationship between me as a therapist and you as the client is of the utmost importance. You will be valued and seen by me as a whole person. At times I can draw on other theories such as solution-focused and psychodynamic theories to link what you may be feeling and issues in the present with events and feelings from the past and from childhood. My work is to be your support alongside you on this chosen journey of yours to growth and fulfilment in life.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
