Welcome to my website.
​
It's scary isn't it?
Just the thought of telling a complete stranger about your thoughts, feelings or life journey,
I remember feeling really nervous at my first counselling session, wondering what it was I was going to talk about or questioning, did I really need this? or was I just being soft!
Telling myself, I just need to get on with it and stop making a fuss!
​
And that whole thought process highlighted my main problem,
That I didn't think I was worth it!
I didn't understand the importance of validating my own thoughts and feelings.
Until I went for Counselling!
​
There are many obstacles in life that we need to overcome, and sometimes these situations can become overwhelming, cause anxiety and leave us feeling out of sorts, I am also aware that seeking this help is probably quite difficult and somewhat daunting and so I aim to make this experience as comfortable and as straightforward as possible for you by offering a safe, confidential environment where we can discuss you situation and needs and we can explore a range of methods using different skills and techniques to help you get the best therapeutic experience possible.
​
Seeing a counsellor should be as normal as seeing a Doctor or Dentist,
Just because the pain isn't visible, it doesn't mean its not there!
