Welcome
Your Source for Personal Growth
Looking for some help? I am more than aware of how difficult this can
be sometimes. Fear of sharing. Thoughts that no-one can help. Anxiety
over how much will this cost. There is a whole host of reasons we put in
the way as to why we don’t reach out. However, if we do, the likelihood
of feeling better and more confident is wonderous!
I am a Registered BACP member, qualified NCS Supervisor and
experienced coach.
I offer a confidential counselling service, using an integrative approach.
This means that work can involve Personal Centred Therapy briefly - this
is your journey, so the path taken is where you want to go and explore
with me alongside you. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focusses on
problems, thoughts, emotions and behaviours, simply explained, how
we ‘think’, affects our behaviour. I also offer Gestalt therapy, which can
lead to quite creative work using sand-trays, art work, objects, role play.
The meaning of the word Gestalt, roughly translated means ‘an
organised whole’. The work helps those who may be fragmented
mentally, spiritually, bodily or emotionally. They may be aware of
certain parts of themselves, rather than the whole self. The therapies
offered are dependent on the client’s needs. I abide by the BACP Ethical
Framework and attend regular supervision.

section, click at the top of this page.
