What is Counselling?
What it's all about...
Counselling is a talking therapy which allows individuals to deal with specific life issues, past or present, that are causing difficulty in their lives.
It offers a safe space for someone in distress to explore their feelings and talk about their problems, with a trained professional who should be able to help you develop better ways of coping, allowing you to live the life you deserve.

There are many different therapies that can be used by counsellors, some involve looking at past relationships and experiences to make sense of them, and others involve looking at the 'here and now'.
I use an Integrative approach to counselling. This is when several distinct models of counselling and psychotherapy are used together. My practice incorporates elements of the training I have received and my aim is to work with the model that best suits each individual client. Central to my work are the Core Conditions of empathy, respect, acceptance and honesty.
