How I Work

Counselling gives you the space and time to examine yourself and your life. As your therapist, I aim to help you understand your current problems in the context of your unique life experiences, allowing you to develop insight into how your difficulties developed. This gives you the opportunity to free yourself from being stuck and allows you to move forward, change and grow. My therapeutic approach begins with creating a highly confidential, safe and trusting environment in which you can be heard and supported. I believe everyone is entitled to voice their thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. The course of counselling is unique to you and we will work together to identify and achieve your therapeutic goals.

It is really important that you find the right counsellor. This is what will determine the efficacy of the work. You will need to feel comfortable with me so we can work closely and effectively together. If you are considering counselling, I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to get to know a little about your concerns and discuss any questions you have and I will have the opportunity to think about whether my approach is suited to you.

My separation and divorce coaching sessions are different from counselling in that they provide information and support to help you address the practical and legal aspects of separation or divorce.
