About Me
Approach
I became a counsellor and psychotherapist because I care about people and want to make a positive difference to their lives. My primary aim is to enable you to discover a better way of living and coping, no matter what challenges or difficulties life throws at you.
I offer a confidential space in which you can talk, and this means that I don't discuss the content of our work with your GP, family or workplace.
Ask a quick question or arrange a time to meet.
In-person & Online
