Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I qualified as a counsellor in the UK in 2017 and since then have worked in a variety of different settings as a professional counsellor. For me this was a big career change and it is a job which I feel truly privileged to do.
I believe strongly in the value of counselling – life can be tough and it can often feel isolating dealing with issues that arise. I have experience in many areas including helping clients with stress and anxiety, self esteem and confidence, family and relationship conflicts and parenting issues.
Counselling is a very personal experience because we are all very different, and so what works for one person may not work for another. My original training is Person-centred therapy and this continues to underpin all of my therapeutic work. In addition, I may use strategies which have their origins in different modalities e.g. Solution focussed, Compassion focussed and Cognitive Behavioural Therapies.
In Person-centred therapy, the therapeutic relationship is at the heart of the process. I will strive to develop an open and trusting therapeutic relationship where you can be honest about how you are feeling, what you think you need and importantly, if you are getting what you need from this therapeutic process.
I believe that you are your own expert and that you have the skills and the strength within you to work through challenges – it’s okay to need some support and guidance to access this strength. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
