I am a fully qualified counsellor who is accredited by the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), which means that I abide by their code of ethics. I hold the following qualifications: Higher National Diploma in Integrative Counselling, Certificate in Counselling, MSc in Rational Emotive and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy.
I am an approachable yet professional counsellor who is committed to working with you to assist you to feel more satisfied with your life.
I work integratively which means that I draw upon a range of psychological therapies in order to best assist individuals. These include psychodynamic therapy which involves making links between how past life events and relationships affect current life events. Humanistic therapy places great emphasis upon offering individuals non-judgmental, unconditional acceptance. Cognitive Behaviour Therapy is solution focused in its nature, preferring to set goals for the future in terms of tangible behaviour change as well as simultaneously challenging unhealthy irrational beliefs.
