Professional Counselling & Psychotherapy
Compassionate - Supportive - Empathetic - Professional
I offer you a warm welcome, in a confidential, non-judgemental space, inviting you to be curious and explore those areas which are important to you.
I am a professional counsellor and psychotherapist and a member of The British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy abiding by their ethical frameworks. All my work is professionally supervised and insured, and I hold an enhanced disclosure and barring service (DBS) certificate. Additionally, I am Cigna insurance affiliated. I trained and practise as a person-centred, integrative counsellor, utilising various modalities to support individual clients' needs. I am also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional which means I work in a trauma-informed way.
I have a First Class Master's Degree in Counselling and Psychotherapy. I am committed to continued professional development, ensuring knowledge and flexibility in the most up-to-date research and interventions. Some of my most recent trainings are; Internal Family Systems Therapy, working with OCD, working with complex trauma, working with displaced people, mediation for resolution, childhood sexual abuse; the body keeps the score and Gabor Mate's, the healing of deep, traumatic wounds. I have also just completed training on working with depression using a single-session mindset so therapy does not have to be for a long duration.
I work online, via video call, with adults and young people of all genders, compassionately, supportively, empathetically, and professionally.
"The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change." Carl Rogers.
