Counselling in Cornwall

I am a fully qualified integrative counsellor who has worked within the public sector and with private clients over a number of years. I use a combined approach to psychotherapy as I believe that there is not one single approach that can successfully treat each client in all situations. I am an experienced warm and compassionate Practitioner and believe that the quality of the relationship between Therapist and Client is fundamental. I offer a safe and confidential space, where together, we can explore areas which matter to you, so you can make appropriate changes, feel in control of your life and develop through in-depth sessions.

I am an experienced counsellor based in Calstock, Cornwall. I provide one-to-one counselling to help people find their way through at times of distress. I have worked with many issues such as depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, self injury, shame, guilt and relationship problems along with many other difficult emotional issues. Counselling can help us gain an understanding of ourselves; how we behave and how our past experiences effect who we are today. Explaining our thoughts and feelings can help us understand our distress, gain empowerment, build confidence and help us deal with the challenges life throws at us.

I specialise working with couples, families, parents, children and young people. Relationships can sometimes be difficult, and counselling can help to unpick what is happening to those involved. Maybe your child is struggling and failing to live life to the full, maybe anxiety is holding them back or they are lashing out at those around them. Adult relationships can also experience difficulties such as conflict or miscommunication. Having a safe, non-judgemental and confidential space to help explore and make sense of what is going on can help individuals and couples find resolve and move forward in their lives.

Feeling overwhelmed or stuck, and don't quite understand what is going on for you right now? Unsure about how to move forwards in a positive and meaningful way? Do you want to make sense of life's challenges? Are you anxious or easily triggered by loud noises, crowds, physical contact, or the anniversary of a traumatic event? Counselling can help identify triggers, develop coping strategies, all in a quiet, non-judgemental and supportive environment. I provide a safe space for you to explore life's challenges, to speak your truth and be heard, enabling you to feel comfortable with who you truly are - your true authentic self.

There are times when you may feel overwhelmed by life and have a sense of repeating patterns or of feeling 'stuck'. Sometimes you might feel confused or depressed and you want to understand why you feel that way and wonder whether you could ever feel any different. Sometimes you may not feel understood by others around you and just want to be able to help them understand.

I am a neurodivergent person-centred therapist who has worked predominantly with clients over the age of 18 who have experienced or are experiencing some kind of domestic abuse, both partner-based or family-based. As people of all ages and genders can encounter this I have worked with a broad range of adult clients with other presenting issues as well. My other area of focus is working with neurodivergent clients, primarily ASD and ADHD. I also offer a body-positive, health-at-every-size approach. LGBTQ+ safe.

I'm predominantly a person centred practitioner but also integrate other skills & models of counselling as required, to ensure the best outcome for each individual that I work with. I provide a free initial consultation so that I can assess & meet each unique clients' needs, wishes & goals in a non-judgemental, supportive, empathic way, after all you know yourself better than I do so it makes sense for us to decide between us the best way forward. I offer face to face sessions in Truro, Penzance & surrounding areas, also online video or telephone sessions if you are further afield.

In these uncertain times we have been given a unique opportunity that we must not waste to re-evaluate what is important and meaningful in our lives. Do you want to be able to identify those areas of your life that need careful reflection and examination in order to make the best decisions possible going forward for your wellbeing and then implement those decisions?

Are you a Trainee, Qualified Counsellor, or someone who works in a therapeutic job role, looking for regular Supervision? I have over 10 years experience and my experience so far in Supervision has been working with, Qualified Counsellors, external agencies and primarily, Trainee Counsellors, who are on their 100 hour Counselling placements. I have worked with many colleges and university Counselling training providers over the years, whereby I have gained a vast amount of experience and knowledge and the many requirements expected, in order for student counsellors to qualify and pass their placement.

I see clients (and supervisees) from all backgrounds and specialise in working with men, or women seeking to better understand difficult relationships with men. I work with many issues including stress, feeling sad, low self-esteem, loss and relationship difficulties. My clients often want to change something about themselves and need a place to feel comfortable, share their emotions and better understand their needs. Articulating emotions and needs can be a struggle at first for some and I am experienced in helping clients to open up over time. My work is with individual clients online or in person, both short and long term.

Life can be a struggle at times, meaning we are unable to cope and need some additional support to help us do more than just function. I will work with you through your own self-guided journey, I offer a safe limitless space to engage in growth and self-awareness and acceptance. I have been volunteering and working within the mental health sector for the past five years and understand that mental health can be a scary, lonely and confusing place, I want to help you explore, understand, change and accept some aspects of your life.

As a fully qualified person-centred counsellor within the heart of Newquay, Cornwall, I can provide you with the time and space to talk openly in a confidential environment.

I am an experienced person-centred and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing) counsellor based in West Cornwall and working across the UK. I’m here to offer you a safe and confidential space to explore your feelings, personal relationships, or simply to provide an opportunity to deepen your self-understanding.

Throughout our lives we may encounter challenging experiences. We may feel lost and lack the guidance and clarity to assist in making difficult choices. We may struggle to deal with the affliction of loss or bereavement. We may find it difficult to understand the sensations and emotions attached to trauma and relational conflicts. We may be unsure of our identity and how we fit within the world.

We each have the potential for happiness and confidence but sometimes life can feel stressful or relentlessly tough. We may struggle with complex anxiety, have experienced trauma, depression, confusion, fear, anger, grief or feeling stuck. Through counselling it is possible to recover and gain confidence and the skills to move forwards with a greater sense of wellbeing.I appreciate the courage it can take to engage in counselling, and how helpful it is to speak to someone who is not a family member or friend. Through this professional relationship we work together to safely explore and resolve any difficult feelings and experiences.

Taking that first step to find a counsellor can sometimes be the hardest, but you’re here. Whether you are overwhelmed with your work/life balance and feeling like you have no time to stop, living with hurt, experienced a loss or feel ready to process past thoughts, behaviours or feelings. I can sit alongside you; not a ‘me and you’ but as equals and offer a non judgemental, confidential, and safe space to navigate these feelings and take that next 2nd step but at your pace as you feel ready.

Sometimes life can feel a little overwhelming. Dealing with conflict at work or how you feel about yourself maybe how you treat yourself. Or maybe you would like to be more assertive, to be able to respect who you are and what you do. Or maybe you have lost someone or something you loved. You may feel you are out of control, or you may be being abused. Are you forever going over conversations or awkward moments thinking what if, what do others think of me. Let me help you find your way to finding you again, the you that loves yourself for who and what you are, a beautiful caring person.
