About me and my therapy practice

Hello, Welcome. As a Person-Centred Therapist, the therapeutic relationship is based on a few key components. What I value highly is your autonomy; to make decisions that are best for you as and when you need to and it is my belief that you are the expert on your experience. It is my role to walk alongside you as you process your thoughts and emotions on your past and present experiences, extending acceptance of you as a whole person we can talk through whatever you want to bring, at a pace that is guided by you.
My aim is to seek to understand you and your experiences; without judgement or prejudice and through my sensitive reflections, that you will feel heard. My hope being that, in turn, you will feel able to express yourself freely. This is more often than not by talking but I also offer the opportunity for you to use a creative expression of communication through art and sand tray, if you so wish.
I work in a comfortable, private, confidential space which is a 5 minute drive from either Junction 7 or 8 off the M27.
