Hi, I'm Mick, a Registered Counsellor. More specifically, I am someone who sparks change in people's lives. I support people in exploring their personal history and uncovering patterns they may not be aware of so that they can begin to control their emotions and be excited about their dreams, goals, relationships, and future. I have lived experience with Depression, PTSD and Anxiety, and in my experience, you can make significant changes in your life when you decide to. You will be amazed at how capable you are of exploring areas of yourself that you never knew existed, as the counselling process can allow you to heal and grow.

I believe every client has within him or herself the knowledge and ability to lead a happy fulfilled life. It is up to the therapist to help and guide the client toward their discovered goals, and suggest steps to be taken. The issues can be many, but the primary criterion is that the client must have is the desire for change of some kind, whether it be a lack of something, pain or suffering, and be willing to take the steps required to achieve this change.

Are you someone who feels overwhelmed more often than productive? Do you constantly go from inspirational-world-changing-momentum to collapse-on-the-bathroom-floor-moment, with little peace in between? For people who are walking with anxiety, sadness or loneliness. If you're ready to stop the chaos, find connection and get in rhythm with your self, your dreams and your best life, I can help you.

I work with people, families and couples in a safe working space to support empowerment and healing. As a qualified and experienced therapist I offer 20 years experience drawn from work within counselling services in the UK, France & Australia. Initially trained in Person Centred Psychotherapy I went on to be trained in Family Therapy which supports a contextual understanding of the person, their situation ,their relationships as well as their struggles. My approach supports people so that they are more likely to draw on their own strengths & values while feeling resourced and able to bring about changes in their life.

Counselling can work directly to support the vulnerable aspects of ourselves that are revealed through our unique difficulties. Our struggle can otherwise get in the way of us bearing witness to our experience clearly, making it harder to find satisfaction in our lives. My aim is to support people so that they feel capable of structuring self-enquiry and healing into their every day, to create a life of meaning, fulfilment and joy.

Making contact with your feelings and thoughts brings new energy to face ongoing challenges, because your thoughts and feelings determine the quality of your moment by moment experience. Talking about your situation, sharing your problems, your achievements and disappointments, your relationships, your fears and desires with an empathic listener, provides enormous relief from carrying these burdens on your own. In our weekly conversations you will learn to understand yourself at a deeper level, so that you can transform problems and worries into new life giving possibilities.
