Hello. Welcome to my profile. It may feel daunting but finding the right therapist is largely about feeling comfortable with one another. Do contact me I will be happy to answer any questions you may have without any obligation. I am an experienced , registered and accredited counsellor and psychotherapist with over 20 years mental health experience. I work in the NHS and in private practice. I work with adults 18 years and over one to one -face to face- online (via whatsapp)-or on the phone . I offer an integrative approach which means that although my main style of counselling is person centred I make use of a range of other modalities.
This allows me to integrate various tools and skills dependent on what your needs are and what you present with. My mental health background provides me with a solid base to work with many varied and sometimes complex issues. No issue is too small or too big.
