My Approach
My Practice is based on respect, sensitivity and compassion. Honouring and supporting the individuality of each person.
It is a collaborative dialogue in which we work together to understand the difficulties you bring. I am open to the exploration of life with all its emotions, feelings, thoughts and directions.
My approach is to be a supportive and encouraging companion through the challenges and changes. Your process may be brief or it may need a more extended time. The goals, topics and length of counselling are up to you.
I draw on a wide variety of approaches and experiences to support this journey.
