As a Person Centred Counsellor my approach is geared around supporting you to find the answers to the challenges you face, believing inherently that only you know what is right for you!
Through our sessions together I offer you the opportunity to experience a meaningful relationship, one built on trust, warmth and genuine acceptance. I bring to my work many years of mindfulness practice and a genuine belief that the capacity for healing is inherent in us all if we are willing to listen deeply to our bodies.
Being in counselling is not always an easy journey but it can be a hugely rewarding one and is a journey that you don’t need to make alone.
I work with both adults and young people and have experience working with a range of issues including but not limited to:
• Loss and bereavement • relationship issues •depression and anxiety • stress • life changes • separation & divorce • abuse • sexuality • body based issues • Boarding School Syndrome
In the words of my clients:
- It has been challenging along the way but I wanted to thank you for being alongside me and supporting me to find happiness again. Jo, Stroud (2015)
- Anxiety has taken over my life before I came for counselling, speaking to you has really helped me to find ways to deal with my fears and for that I am so grateful. Katy, Stroud (2016)
- I feel in a better place now. Talking about my past and how it affected me hasn’t always been easy but it has helped me understand myself better. Thank you! Gary, Cirencester (2014)
If you are an adult seeking support for yourself or a parent seeking support for your teenager you can rest assured you will be met with care, compassion and consideration from me. I look forward to hearing from you!
