About me
Having originally trained and worked as a mental health nurse in the NHS, I went on to train in Person-centered counselling. I discovered that by moving the focus away from illness and towards self-awareness, self-understanding and self-acceptance, people are empowered to make the changes they are seeking.
I have a passion for continual learning and discovering new ideas. I feel it is an honour to be a counsellor, to connect deeply with people, share their inner worlds and help them bring about lasting change.
I believe that everyone is able to make positive changes to lead a happier, more fulfilling life and that we all need some help at sometime to make that happen.
What I offer
Feeling anxious, stressed or stuck? Finding your mood is low and you're feeling overwhelmed a lot of the time? I help people who are feeling like this find new ways to be with their experiences, bringing clarity, a fresh feel to repetitive emotions and change. I work in a gentle, supportive way, helping you to explore what you are finding difficult and find new ways forward.
I work in a way that not only helps you to pay attention to how your mind is feeling, but also sensing in your body, increasing your awareness of the whole of you. Our bodies are continually giving us information (for example, feeling tense and anxious) that we so often try to ignore. When we appreciate that these feelings are our body’s way of trying to get our attention and we listen to this deeper knowing, we can start to see what we are struggling with in new ways, allowing change to follow naturally.
I also offer walking counselling, in beautiful natural surroundings. where we are often better able to pause and reflect, helping us see our problems more clearly, enabling us to heal and grow. It can be easier to talk about difficult issues outside.
