I am an integrative counsellor and mindfulness-based therapist, trained in a range of therapeutic approaches. I work with many issues including stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, self-criticism, loneliness, grief, relationship difficulties, life changes, past trauma, self-harm and addiction.You may feel stuck or overwhelmed, distracted or disconnected, or that you lack purpose or meaning in life. You may not really know what the problem is but feel you could do with some support.If you’re struggling or finding things difficult, you’re not alone. I understand how daunting it can be talking to someone about your feelings. I am here to listen and help you explore the issues you face, help you understand yourself better, see things more clearly and start making the changes you want.Things don't have to be really bad in order to seek help. Even mild symptoms can seriously impair our enjoyment of life and wellbeing. My aim is to provide a safe, supportive space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings or difficulties without being judged.I can help you understand yourself better and see things more clearly. I can help you reconnect with your own personal strengths, work out what's important to you, and start making the changes you want to make. I can help you work through difficult thoughts and feelings, and find ways to manage them so they have less impact on your life and wellbeing.We can often be quite unkind to ourselves - judging, blaming or criticising ourselves for things that have happened, or for the way we think and feel. I can help you find ways to ease your inner critic, so that you feel better about yourself and your worth as a human being. I can help you challenge self-limiting beliefs and behaviours. I can help you develop courage, resilience and acceptance, and encourage you to support yourself and your difficulties with compassion.
