My aim for setting up a therapy practice was to provide help to those who are struggling with life's challenges. Do you feel as though something in your life isn't right? Maybe you've found yourself at a crossroads, unsure of where to go next. You might want support with reaching a decision, or facing your past. You might be looking to address relational/behavioural patterns, or want someone to help you cope through a crisis. It might be none of those things.It could be difficult to explain, and others don't seem to understand:- all you know is that you don't want to feel like it anymore, and you want things to be different.
As the name Ellipsis suggests, I want to help you break the silence. It can be difficult to open up to someone about something that is deeply personal, which is why I will take the process at your own pace, offering an impartial and confidential space. You are free to disclose as much or as little as you wish, and you are free to leave or return at any time.
I have worked with people from all walks of life such as refugees, prison leavers, learning disabled adults, students, those experiencing homelessness, addiction & trauma. I'm also experienced in working in a variety of settings such as various counselling agencies in South Wales and the NHS.
