I specialise in Maternal Mental Health, and working with teenagers. Matrescence and adolescence are times of huge change and I am here to support you. Whoever you are, whatever you are experiencing, we all struggle with aspects of life sometimes. Having someone to talk to can make a huge difference and help ease the pressure life puts on us. You are not alone - even counsellors have counsellors!

Hello, I'm Tiffany, a level 6 qualified person-centered counsellor. In order to customise the therapeutic approach to each client's specific needs, I frequently integrate techniques from different counselling modalities, such as solution-focused brief therapy and cognitive behaviour therapy. In my opinion, the client-counsellor relationship is a very important factor in working towards achieving your hopes from accessing support. The foundation of my practice is providing a secure, accepting environment where you may be completely yourself. I consider myself to be warm, genuine, and most importantly, human.

You may be looking for help around something specific such as difficult feelings or aspects of your life have become overwhelming or unmanageable, or maybe it is to understand and heal from past experiences. Whatever your reason for seeking counselling my aim is to help you to make sense of why you feel the way you do and to help you move through this difficult period in your life. I fundamentally believe that gaining insight and awareness through the process of counselling and psychotherapy facilitates healing and being able to find a new way forward.

My counselling practice is centred on the belief that difficulties can send us ‘off-track’ but we all have the capacity to find our way back, we might just need a little help. I work with what you bring, using the counselling approach that meets your individual needs, rather than fitting your needs into a predecided approach. For example you may need some immediate help with tools to manage your current symptoms, and then later want to look deeper into discovering the cause of those symptoms. Whatever you bring I will not judge. I will offer you the care, empathy and understanding that I would want in a counsellor.

I can support you if you're experiencing challenges such as relational trauma, anxiety, depression, stress or bereavement, amongst others. Do you feel overwhelmed and unable to cope with life's day-to-day challenges? Or do you find relationships difficult? Maybe you are searching for a more meaningful life. I can help with these questions and more. I will facilitate the conditions for you to explore what matters to you, make positive changes and create a fulfilling life according to your values. I will be led by you in terms of the pace and topics we discuss and this can help you learn new ways to cope with day-to-day difficulties.

I offer therapy and supervision that starts with what you bring; making no assumptions, listening with empathy and working with you towards growth and change. The client-therapist relationship is vital, as we need to trust each other in order to work together effectively (getting the right therapist for you is more important than gaining a client for me). I offer weekly, fortnightly, monthly and ad hoc sessions. Please EMAIL/TEXT as I cannot answer the phone when with clients and I don’t want to miss your call. Jan 2023 - I currently have no evening, after 6pm, sessions available

Are you feeling so overwhelmed that you feel out of your depth? Or experiencing a sense of loss, unable to cope? Fear is our worst enemy, and we will try and find a way of taking back control. If you feel you are struggling there is a strength in reaching out for support. Counselling helps you to gain a better understanding of self through the therapeutic process, and I believe we are all unique and have the potential to change, therefore develop a belief in your ability to cope. You will begin to make sense of the past and begin to recognise your true self.

With no waiting list and sessions available I can offer counselling & hypnotherapy to help you recover from depression, fear and anxiety through motivation & perspective thus finding the joy that you once had in your life. Anxiety, fear & hopelessness are some emotions that can linger post traumatic events, again I can help you overcome these symptoms. Loss of a loved one or diagnoses of a life limiting condition are devastating events & the pain of this sometimes unbearable. Feelings of guilt, anger & grief can become apparent & each individual responds differently. I am here to help you through your concerns of the future.

Hey, Are struggling with anxiety, relationships, or trauma? Maybe you are seeking relief from depression or desire personal growth. You want things to change, to feel better. Overwhelmed by work pressures, family dynamics, or unresolved past experiences, your goal is to find a safe, supportive space to explore these issues, develop coping strategies, and achieve a sense of balance and well-being. You may want more than just traditional talk therapy and are looking for a counsellor who brings all of themselves into the process, offering diverse and engaging methods.

Change, and uncertainty are part of our lives. You may have reached a crossroads in your life and are not sure which path to take? Maybe you have an important decision to make and need some help exploring it. Perhaps you find yourself pushing people away in relationships, or feel stuck and have been putting things off? You may have a feeling of loss or have experienced loss and are unsure how to deal with it. Do you feel alone with your struggles, and in need of support and reassurance? Feeling unsure about reaching out to friends, family or colleagues is very common.

Feeling stuck is more common than you might think. Your thoughts are piling up, and it feels like the harder you try to sort them out, the more tangled they become. It's natural to cling on to old stuff because it feels safe or familiar, or perhaps you can't quite pinpoint what's up. These moments often show up disguised as stress, overwhelm, feeling low or as a constant state of anxiety. There might be signs physically and mentally, telling you it's time for something different. You might also be searching for a new playlist for your mind, wondering if it's even possible as everything seems to be stuck on loop.
