Encouraging you towards a life that’s truly ‘you’.
Sometimes we know exactly why we don’t feel too good.
Other times, we just have a vague sense that things aren’t quite right.
We have the same thoughts over and over, and we feel stuck.
We want something to change. We want to feel good about our lives.
Change-focused counselling and psychotherapy
Counselling helps us get those frustrating thoughts out there. It encourages us to start moving forward bit by bit, towards the life we want.
To change, we exercise our courage muscle, and with encouragement and practice, this way of moving towards fulfilment becomes a way of life.
I will encourage you towards change, until you can encourage yourself.
If you’re reading this, you’ve already taken that brave first step in acting on the feeling that things could be different.
You’ve started, now keep going, I wholeheartedly believe in you!
What to expect working with me

There are four phases in Adlerian therapy that we’ll use to guide the work:
Engagement. Once we start working together, we’ll talk about what your life is like now and what you want to get out of counselling. Some clients have a lot to say that they haven’t said before, so we’ll make time for that.
Assessment. We’ll delve deeper into your back story – how you see yourself, others and the world. What experiences, especially from childhood, have led you to where you are now.
Insight. We’ll work together on creating insights from this work. Some insights are powerful enough that things are different from that moment on.
Reorientation. Other insights need the addition of action to create change for you. I’ll support and encourage you through this part of the process. It takes courage and I’m firmly in your corner. (And we’re not aiming to be perfect.)
We’ll adapt the pace of this deeper insight and change-focused work. If you need time to process something that’s going on now, we’ll prioritise that.
We’ll move forward with self-compassion and courage to experiment with different ways of being.
Why me
I’ve experienced that little moment of magic where you feel like a key has unlocked a secret that changes everything.
I’ve had that sort of transformative help from counsellors, tutors and coaches along the way, and am now fully converted to the power of seeking (and offering) help.
I would consider it such a privilege if you would trust me with your story. I deeply care about you as a unique person and fully respect your right to be you.
I’m eager to learn about your unique gifts and help you make the changes to create the life you want.
