“THE CURIOUS PARADOX IS THAT WHEN I ACCEPT MYSELF JUST AS I AM, THEN I CAN CHANGE ”

So how might I help you?

Are you feeling low and it's getting worse instead of better?
-
Do you wish you were more confident and didn't worry so much?
-
Does anger seem to affect too many areas of your life in a negative way?

Is something from your past holding you back?

Would you like to have a better relationship with your partner?
If you answered yes to any of the above I can support you to find solutions to get you to a better place.

MY SPECIALITIES
INDIVIDUAL COUNSELLING
Helps to get a fresh perspective on areas in your life that are not serving you well and are holding you back from realising your full potential. Each session is 50 minutes long tailored to your unique needs.
COUPLES COUNSELLING
It is important for you to know that I am completely impartial and will NEVER side with either party. Secondly, I do not give advice......together we will explore different aspects of your relationship including communication, intimacy, conflict and trust. It is about understanding each others perspective and both of you taking responsibility for whatever is happening in your relationship right now. It is about bringing joy and fun back into your lives.
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Re-processing (EMDR). It is generally a short term therapy and was discovered by Dr Francine Shapiro in 1987. It was initially used for people who suffered from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Please click here for more information.
