Talking about domestic abuse can feel daunting and humiliating and you might question if it was your fault. The abuse might have happened at any point from childhood through to your senior years. You might still have contact your abuser which can fill you with fear and dread knowing that their response will be more threatening and degrading words. You might be afraid of what others think of you for speaking out, but I’m here to listen and always validate your feelings. You might feel as if your experience, “isn’t too bad,” but any level of abuse can shatter your life, destroy your wellbeing and make you feel isolated and alone.
I can’t take your experiences away from you, but counselling with me can help you to find a path where happiness and courage seems possible. Together we can find ways to ease your feelings of fear and anxiety. I will offer an integrated approach to counselling giving you a place where you can understand your own self-worth to create a future for yourself.
If you believe I am the right counsellor for you, but you have concerns about your safety or a court case, I want you to feel comfortable discussing how I can continue to support you. I take your confidentiality and privacy very seriously; I am registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office meaning I abide by their data protection requirements.

I have worked at a busy women's centre in Birmingham where all of my clients were victims of domestic abuse and some had struggled with substance abuse. Domestic abuse victims also endure encounters with the police, the courts and children's services adding more fear to an already complex situation.

I begin with using a person-centred approach to counselling as in my experience this offers a sound base for building our therapeutic relationship. I can then start to introduce other appropriate approaches such as cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and transactional analysis (TA). I often see a benefit in using attachment based approaches when working with domestic abuse clients.
