I am a trained Integrative Counsellor, offering Gestalt, person-centred and cognitive behavioural therapies. I also offer mindfulness, visualisation and object work.
I can offer therapy face-to-face, via skype or by telephone. My preference would be to meet face-to-face as I feel this is most beneficial to you, the client.
