I am an experienced counsellor who works with individual adults with a wide range of issues and problems including; anxiety; low mood/depression; stress; assertiveness; bereavement/grief; self-harm; eating and body image issues; life transitions; relationship issues; and many more issues.
I have a particular interest in working with depression drawing from Interpersonal Therapy( IPT).
I work in what is described an 'integrative' approach, ultimately this means having a Person-Centred base and then integrating elements from a number of evidence-based approaches including Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) in order to meet the needs and preferences of each individual. For you, this means that the therapy you are provided with is completely tailored to your specific needs as they change.
I believe that everyone has the potential for growth and change and that the therapeutic relationship is an essential part of the client's journey.
I aim to provide a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental approach to therapy where people feel safe to explore areas of their lives that they are struggling with.
