Services

Family Counselling

All family members are unique, each with different perspectives, needs, values and wants. These differences can lead to difficult situations and cause conflict within the family.

My family counselling services aim to improve communication and foster healthy relationships within the family. Family therapy is a form of therapy that focuses on your family as a unit and not individual members. I help your family work towards healthier relationships and facilitate the improvement of relationships and communications among all family members. It enables family members to express and explore difficult thoughts and emotions in a safe environment so that all your family members feel valued, understood and accepted.

Individual Counselling

Sometimes life can be difficult. Life may throw challenges our way which feel like they’re more than we can handle.

Counselling is a process which can help to support you if you have a problem or a difficult situation that you are wanting to resolve, or if you would like to explore the way you are thinking or feeling in a deeper way.

Our individual counselling sessions provide personalised support to help you navigate life's challenges. You may find it easier to talk to me about personal matters or whatever is on your mind because I am not your family or friend.

I am here to support and help you through the process though. I sincerely believe that everyone has the ability to overcome their struggles.

“Whenever you doubt your self-worth, remember the Lotus Flower. Even though it emerges from the mud, once it blooms and breaks the surface of the water, the lotus flower is entirely unmarked by the dirt that surrounded it.”

I offer a range of counselling services to men, women, young people, children and families. I am experienced in addressing a wide range of mental health issues.

Child Counselling

Every child is unique, and all children react to situations differently and in their own way. If you are concerned about your child's mental health please contact me.

Therapy for children involves a range of approaches to help the child manage and express their emotions.

I have experience in counselling children and supporting their parents and carers. Therapy with me will give your child the opportunity to talk about their thoughts and feelings without the fear of being judged. Speaking with me in the comfort of their own home and away from school, often takes away some of the initial pressure.

Therapy offers a safe environment for your child to express their thoughts and feelings and help them understand what may have caused them to think and feel this way.

Young Person Counselling

Each young person is unique, and naturally respond to different situations in their individual way.

Therapy can be a valuable tool for a young person who is facing a variety of different challenges, such as stress at school, social anxiety, behavioural issues or family conflicts. I'm also able to help your young person cope with everyday worries, such as exam stress and career choices, or relationship issues with family members, friends, or teachers. Therapy can help young people develop a better understanding of themselves and their emotions and also improve their coping skills.

It is important for a young person to feel comfortable with their therapist. Sometimes, depending on the age of the young person, parents can also play a role in supporting their young person's therapy by helping to schedule appointments, and showing interest in their young person's progress.

Counselling offers a safe environment for a young person to express their feelings and understand what may have caused them to feel this way. Having therapy with me will give a young person the opportunity to talk about their thoughts and feelings without the fear of judgement.

I have worked with many young people and have learnt how to connect with them, no matter how reluctant they may be initially to access counselling.

Counselling for Schools

I offer a range of counselling services for schools aimed at developing the mental health and emotional wellbeing of your pupils or staff.

I offer professional one-to-one counselling services to children, young people and staff who are experiencing mental health difficulties.

Counselling offers a safe environment and an opportunity for them to talk about their thoughts and explore their feelings in a confidential and non judgemental place.

I am able to work within the school or online and can provide a full enhanced DBS.

I would work in line with your schools policies and procedures and also follow the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions.
