I am a person-centred counsellor and Psychotherapist, which means that I will always listen and remain empathic whilst facilitating your process which can be explorative and challenging at times. Therapy can be many things to each individuals, therefore, the therapeutic process is tailored to your individual needs.  We can consider the initial few sessions as a process of getting to know each other and establishing a trusting foundation where we can discuss and explore your problems. 

Who I work with 
 
I work with adults regardless of culture, background and gender.  I feel that what individuals bring to counselling can be closely related to loss whether it be loss of identity, job, relationship or home, not to mention many other significant life changing events.  However, individuals experience such difficulties in a way that is unique to themselves. If you are feeling in limbo or stuck in a repetitive cycle, confused as to why you have certain thoughts or feelings and want to make sense of your concerns then counselling may be beneficial to you.I assist with a range of issues including the following:

  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Work related Stress 
  • Infertility problems 
  • Neurodiversity 
  • Trauma (PTSD)
  • Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
  • Low self esteem and low confidence
  • Grief and loss following a death of someone, and other losses. 
  • Relational difficulties for individuals therapy. Issues such as Divorce, affairs and communication.
  • Abuse - Physical, Sexual, sexual assault and violence
  • Feelings of Suicide or Self harm.
  • Menopause.

 I run a private practice, in addition to working for Bupa Health Insurance,  I also provide Counselling & Psychotherapy for students at the University of Salford.

My motivation
 
I believe greatly in the effectiveness of counselling based on my personal experiences, and those throughout my experience of individuals who  have worked through their personal conflict in counselling sessions, who found resolve and initiated positive life changes. For me, it is a great privilege to have the opportunity to support individuals who develop positively through the process of change, which  provides me with all the motivation I need to practice as a counsellor.
