About me and my therapy practice

Sometimes we may just need to let it all out, to voice the 鈥榰nsaid鈥� and to have someone really listen and not judge. Maybe we have hit a bump in the road or encounter external issue that we have to address, whatever it is, you don't have to face things on your own.

When everything is confusing, deeply upsetting, overwhelming, if you feel angry or hopeless I will help you feel safe enough to explore what is happening. We will explore your inner most thoughts, in a safe space, and I will really listen and be right by your side. I can offer you support for anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship connections and personal growth.

I have had experience in working with past childhood experiences and many areas of therapy during my work at Devon Mind for nearly 10 years. As an integrative counsellor I use activities and tools to explore new ways to discover inner feelings and to:

Identify patterns and triggers

Process past experiences

Develop coping strategies

Build self-awareness

Methods to reduce anxiety and stress

I want you to know that I appreciate that you are investing in counselling because you want to make changes and need to work with the right counsellor for you. I therefore, offer a free telephone consultation so you can make sure that I am the right person to work with.

Practice description

As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional I work in a trauma informed way and put you at the centre of our work together. Past traumas can affect us day to day and result in feelings of anxiety, a lack of identity, being overwhelmed, lost, issues with communication and lack of assertiveness.

Using techniques from different therapeutic schools of thought we can we can work through things even when you may feel stuck. I can also use EFT Emotional Freedom Technique which provide you with self help tools, that you can use at home.

So please do contact me.
