Why come to counselling?

Life is tough. We get bruised and broken-hearted. There are times where we need someone's help, walking with us. Counselling can help us understand ourselves, our choices and our situations and find our way to healing.

​

Where I work

I work in person near Ross-On-Wye and online.​​

​

Why choose me?

It's not easy to know which therapist to approach, especially if you are just browsing the internet. Maybe try a session before making the decision and whether it's me or another person you feel drawn to work with, go with that inkling.

​​

How do I work?

I incorporate concepts from the three main psychotherapeutic approaches of Person Centred, Psychodynamic and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. I love to lean into the imagination, metaphor and the symbolic- I understand these as the language of the heart. I also find that attuning to the understanding the body holds, takes us deeper. We are each filled with resources that help towards healing, and so it is about finding out together how to draw towards that creative flow.

​​

Qualifications

I have undertaken a Masters in Counselling and am an accredited member of the NCPS (National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society) and abide by its ethical guidelines. ​​I also hold a Masters from the University of Cambridge

Can't afford counselling?

I offer a limited number of concessionary rates for people who can only afford a reduced fee. These are in high demand and new spaces are occasional. 

I have seen that counselling can be the catalyst of yearned-for change and am passionate about access to affordable counselling for those on low incomes. Most counties have some access to affordable counselling through charities. Having worked for several years at www.listeningpost.org.uk in Gloucestershire, I can commend their work which is a pay what you can afford model.
