Sometimes insights from the past may start to make sense of the present. On other occasions, patterns of behaviour causing present problems can be identified.

I encourage clients to understand for themselves what is going on - both in their thoughts and in their emotions. This can open up opportunities for positive change within the supportive framework of the counselling relationship.

Some areas of counselling I work with include:

Low self-esteem

Anxiety

Depression

Stress

Family difficulty

Emotional abuse

Relationship  issues

Dealing with loss

Bullying

I bring together understanding from different areas of expertise:

• a deep understanding of the process of change
  
  
• a range of psychotherapy skills
