A little bit about me and why I love what I do.
I feel passionate about the benefits of therapy, my personal therapeutic journey of self awareness in therapy has empowered me through times of adversity and challenge, therapy freed me from many patterns in my life that did not serve me well. Some of which I was completely unaware. I now feel comfortable experiencing emotions that at one time would have terrified me. My personal journey alongside my studies have given me an understanding of how I can function in a healthy emotional way, I feel very privileged to have a job that means I can walk for a little while alongside my clients on their personal journey of self discovery. I hope that at some point you can feel this way too, whether that is through working with me or through some other means.
How I work
I work in a way that acknowledges the uniqueness of each individual. I use a flexible approach to my Counselling and Psychotherapy practice, where I draw on a variety of theoretical approaches and many years of experience in my clinical work.
I was trained to use an Integrated approach in my Counselling and Psychotherapy practice, and I have done further training including CBT, ACT, Trauma Therapy, Solution Focussed Therapy, to name a few. I have a passionate interest in Neuroscience and have done extensive professional development in this area to widen my expertise and give me a more in depth understanding of why we develop certain coping strategies and behavioural patterns.
Recently I’ve been exploring Analytic Systemic model of therapy.
I believe that our emotional wellbeing in the present is often affected by our past, Counselling and Psychotherapy can help you to accept and make sense of your past, understanding your experiences can also be an important part in finding your identity and can lead to healing.
Gaining insight into what drives you and learning why you sometimes repeat destructive processes and patterns is a benefit of Counselling and Psychotherapy that can lead to change, this can enable you to find contentment and inner peace.
My belief is that by creating the right environment we can build a strong trusting relationship where you will feel safe to share and explore your thoughts and feelings with me. I believe you have the power within yourself to be whole and feel ok in your world, sometimes you might need help through Counselling and Psychotherapy to find it.
I am a member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists and work within the requirements set out in their code of ethics.
