We can all be challenged or go through difficult circumstances in our lives. At times we may become stressed, experience anxiety, feel profound unhappiness or suffer a great loss. Counselling provides a protected and boundaried space in which to bring and work through these experiences. In a counselling session, you will be heard, by a trained person, in strict confidence. The counsellor's role is not to give advice or to tell you what to do but rather to be a skilled and helpful companion, accompanying you, as you discover your own process and ways of finding growth and healing.

I specialise in counselling for parents/carers of children/ adults with challenging behaviour. I believe that life is difficult at times, and we may not be able to resolve issues ourselves and need a helping hand.

Whatever your issue, a long-term problem, an immediate crisis, or just feeling stuck. I can offer you a calm space where you have the opportunity to explore what has prompted you to seek Counselling.

We all experience negative thoughts, feelings and emotions in our lives. Whilst we may not be able to control everything that happens to us, we can learn to manage the way in which we respond.

Life today seems to be overloaded by a variety of stress in many spheres of existence. What should be enjoyable and fulfilling sometimes turns out to be the very cause of suffering.

This could potentially leave us feeling confused and ashamed. Shame does not heal the pain of suffering. Every human being has a need to be understood, accepted and validated because the human brain is wired to love and be loved.
