Helping you to find your way back to yourself.

As a counsellor, my aim is to aid you in finding your way back to yourself. To do this, I offer a Person-Centred approach at the core of my practice, providing a safe and non-judgmental space where empathy and unconditional positive regard are key to fostering personal growth. My integrative style allows me to draw from a range of therapeutic models, including Jungian therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Transactional Analysis, Creative and Art therapy, and Solution-Focused therapy. This blend ensures that the support you receive is tailored to your unique needs, promoting self-awareness, healing, and empowerment on your journey.

  • Person-Centred Therapy is at the heart of my approach. It emphasises creating a warm, non-judgmental, and empathetic environment where you are seen, heard, and accepted without conditions. This foundation of unconditional positive regard encourages self-exploration and fosters personal growth, allowing you to navigate lifeโ€™s challenges with greater clarity and self-compassion.

  • Jungian Therapy emphasises the exploration of the unconscious and personal symbols, offering deep insight into one’s inner world. It can help uncover the root causes of emotional difficulties and foster a deeper sense of self-awareness and meaning in life.

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is focused on identifying and changing thought patterns and behaviours which clients identify as needing to change. By incorporating CBT, clients can develop practical strategies to manage anxiety, depression, and other challenges by shifting their thinking and behaviours in a structured way.

  • Transactional Analysis (TA) looks at the interactions between people, helping clients understand their communication styles, relationship dynamics, and patterns of behaviour. This approach can help in navigating personal and professional relationships more effectively.

  • Creative and Art Therapy allows for non-verbal expression of feelings and experiences, making it particularly useful for those who find it difficult to articulate emotions. It taps into creative processes to promote healing and self-exploration through artistic forms such as drawing, writing, and movement.

  • Solution-Focused Therapy is future-oriented and goal-driven, helping clients focus on their strengths and resources to create positive changes. It empowers individuals to envision their preferred future and take small, achievable steps toward it.

By integrating these approaches, the therapy process becomes both dynamic and personalised, addressing immediate concerns while also fostering long-term and in-depth personal growth and transformation.

  • This quote has been in my mind a lot over the past week. 

From a personal perspective, I have seen how this quote not only applies to the self, but also situations and circumstances. 

With clients, I always see the "I need to get to know myself" dynamic playing out, when in reality, the implicit is that sometimes clients do know themselves, they're just skipping the acceptance part and wanting to jump straight into radical change. 

Acceptance is potent and powerful. It gives us power we did not know we had. It forces us to participate in our own lives and look at parts of ourselves that may be dark or uncomfortable. But after all of that, acceptance is the thing that frees space for change.
