I work with people so they can be happier. People want counselling as they want to make a change for the better. I can help you identify what the problem is that you want to change, work out how to make changes that reduce the problem and improve your life. As you make better, healthier, happier choices, you will feel better about yourself and your life. You may be struggling with a relationship, a loved one close to you, or you may be struggling with an addiction. You may be not be happy about your work life balance, or struggling with parts of your past that you are not at peace with. I will help you to like yourself more.
I use a motivational interviewing style that is strength based and trauma informed. My dry British humour makes the hard work more fun. We will identify the problem, which is often more complex then we believe and encourage you to make changes to improve your life. I use Positive Psychology research to support you on your happiness journey.
Over the years I have learnt that people can form narratives that are credible and sound and they have held onto them for years. These stories have negative emotions attached to them such as shame. I work with people to have a better story about themselves, so that they can move through forgiving themselves to liking and loving themselves.

Most people come to counselling as they want to improve their life. I have worked with many people for the last 7 years and have learned that the best way to support a person is help them see things differently. People report that they feel better after having a session with me. I can use a range of modalities such as motivational interviewing, DPT and ACT. They are your sessions, I support you.
