If this is your first time coming into therapy, welcome. I know it can be daunting, but please remember you’ve made a decision to help yourself and that is a massive step in itself. Living these days can be very difficult for some people on a daily basis without any other stress, pressure, demands, anxiety, or feelings of being overwhelming coming into the mix. We all need a little help from time to time and I am here to help you not have to carry those heavy burdens alone. My main focus is on you; your aims, your truth, the real you, you feel you longer can be and how we can work together to get you back on track.

Life throws up things that we don’t expect, testing our resilience and ability to overcome situations that are often not of our own making. Talking can be key in understanding your predicament and help you move forward. That old saying "a problem shared is a problem halved" really is true. Talking about a problem makes it seem less daunting or troubling. As a counsellor I can offer you that safe, secure place to talk and help you find the right way for you.

I work with young people and adults, In a safe, non-judgmental and confidential space, Our lives can become stressful and overwhelming at times. Life can become too much, and it can seem impossible to find peace and balance. You may have difficult feelings or past hurts that are stopping you from moving forward so you are stuck. It can be helpful to talk to a person who is not directly involved so that you can gain more insight and clarity. I can offer you a listening ear and together we can go on a journey to which we can explore your issue. You are the person who knows what is best for you but maybe I can assist you.
