Couples Counselling

​

If you are considering seeking counselling, it will be because something has shifted for you.  Something in your world, in your life, in your relationship, in your thoughts or your feelings.  You may be struggling to make sense of your situation, feeling high levels of anxiety, or even be experiencing panic attacks.  Whatever the cause of your difficulties, I am here to help.

​

I have worked with Relate (the foremost relationship counselling organisation in the UK) for 29 years.  During this time, I have provided successful therapeutic support to thousands of couples and individuals.  I am now extending my skills to work in private practice.

​

Whatever your issues are, I can offer you caring, empathetic, professional and effective therapy in a safe environment. 

 

If you choose to work with me, I will draw upon my extensive training, skills, experience and strategies from a wide range of therapeutic theory and practice, as well my own learning from life to enable you to move forward.

 

You will experience a warm and genuine therapeutic relationship in our work together.  I will integrate psycho-dynamic, systemic, cognitive behavioral as well as solution focused strategies to guide you to explore and understand whatever issues you come to counselling to resolve.  This exploration and understanding will lead you to becoming empowered to find the solutions you need and make the changes necessary to live your life in a more peaceful and fulfilling way.  Life can be better for you than it is currently.......
