About Me

About Me

I am a Humanistic Integrative counsellor and use Person-Centred, Transactional Analysis, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Gestalt techniques depending on the individual needs of my clients. As a counsellor and independent practitioner I am bound by Ethical Framework Conduct Procedures. In addition to working with adults, I work with children and adolescents.

Counselling is about talking but is also about changes. I will work with you to explore the problems and help you to find your own path. I am warm and honest, I really hope I am the person that you are looking for to support you with your journey.

Life is very much an up-and-down hill journey with bumpy rides that we just don’t foresee. Clients that I work with often feel that life is getting on top of them – they are not living the life they want. I am here to provide a safe, confidential and creative environment in which we work together to open the door to new beginning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Sometimes I will address the immediate problem, although it is important to see what is behind the difficulties. So, together we will explore your behaviour and perhaps not the obvious issues but what is behind them and how did you get there. We will make a plan for your sessions using CBT or a Humanistic Integrative approach whatever is best for you.

It is common that you will lead the session but it does sometimes depend on your issues. In my experience, I have found that I might perhaps need to bring you back and focus on your difficulties. Sometimes it can be very painful to deal with the hurt. It is your choice what you bring to our sessions; however, I want you to get the most benefit from them, so sometimes I might support you in finding the right direction.

I believe my strengths are my honesty with my clients and my empathy with them. Another strength is my passion for helping clients to find a positive outlook in life and be able to explore new things that they previously found difficult.

Part of my training is to take my own personal therapy so I am aware how important is to be ready to make any changes and deal with the pain that has been built up for a very long time.

We are all different and it all depends on you how you feel about talking to, and trusting your counsellor. I am very friendly, caring and honest so hopefully this will help you to work in a warm environment that you feel relaxed in and are able to talk freely.

You are in safe hands
