Welcome. I am a qualified social worker who has worked with adopted and looked after children and their families for over 18 years. I currently work primarily as a psychotherapist counsellor with children/young people and adults in a nurturing and honouring way. I enjoy helping others recognise their own barriers to moving towards their goals and work with them to identify their own strengths and potential. My sessions focus on us building an open, congruent and trusting relationship together. I can then support you to recognise and uncover past patterns which may no longer be helpful to your own growth and development and may be affecting your ability to form healthy relationships with others.
