Clinical Experience in Counselling

I am an experienced counsellor offering individual counselling, and psychosexual and relationship therapy for couples and individuals. I also work in a centre for people who present with issues around sexual identity, and have had experience working in a variety of settings with children and young people. I believe that we are all in charge of our lives and the direction in which we live them out, yet sometimes we lose our sense of direction. My hope is to provide a safe and supportive place in which to work with you in order for you to find your sense of direction and your sense of self.

What to Expect during Counselling

I am person centred therapist and also incorporate relaxation and mindfulness techniques in my work. At the heart of my counselling philosophy is the belief that the client is the expert on their life, and that my role is to facilitate a space where I accompany the client on their journey, so that they can make changes in their lives and fulfil their potential. I accept my clients in a non judgmental way.
