Qualifications

I have been in practice as an Emotional Therapeutic Counsellor since 2004, helping individuals to realise their full potential. I will help you to overcome obstacles standing in your way and support you towards a positive future.
If you are struggling to cope with everyday life, anxiety, depression or relationship issues, I can help you to overcome the obstacles that are stopping you from moving forward in a positive way. We suppress emotions as we go through life because they are too painful to deal with. I will help you to make the connections why you are feeling like you are? The process, which is very supportive and gentle, rather than using the mind to analyse, seeks to promote healing of the original emotional wounds by working through the feelings.
You will be offered a safe place to talk and the assurance of confidentiality at all times. I have many years of experience in counselling people and have helped many clients to find positive ways to cope with the challenges that life presents.
