How can counselling help?

Counselling is a talking therapy, where you can explore how you feel and make sense of your difficulties and what they mean to you in a confidential, safe and nonjudgmental environment.

I can help individuals increase their emotional strength by supporting them to allow expression freely about the issues they may be struggling with. This promotes awareness and self-understanding which enables the possibilities of change.

I place great value on the therapeutic relationship and believe it is paramount for a successful outcome. It is important that you find the right therapist for you.

Confidentiality will be maintained unless there is a concern for your safety or others.

Further information can be found from (BACP) the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
