Counsellor - Psychotherapist - Life Coach

“Helping people help themselves”

In my counselling and psychotherapeutic practice I work with clients to help them understand and potentially resolve a wide range of difficulties. Typically these may be:

Anxiety - Feeling Low - Loss - Relationship Issues - Stress

Self Esteem - Eating disorders - Addiction

My personal philosophy is that I feel different people require different strategies to help them at different times in the work. This philosophy has been developed from my professional training together with broad professional and personal life experiences. It has I believe given me a grounded approach to my integrative practice.

My professional status is:

• BACP Accredited Counsellor working to the BACP’s Ethical Framework

• UKRCP Registered Independent Counsellor/Psychotherapist

The life coaching aspect of my practice is quite different from my counselling and psychotherapeutic work. As a Life Coach I am more directive and work in a solution focused way to help people identify and reach achievable goals.
