About Me
I am a friendly, down to earth, empathic, warm, and slightly quirky person centred integrative coach, counsellor & psychotherapist, who will work with you to help you move forwards in life, understand what is going on for you and support you to find the answers you seek.
I believe that everybody is unique and different and therefore understand that each of my clients will need different things from me.
I work from the inside out which means that I like to help my clients to get to the root cause of whatever the issue may be in order for you to have the breakthroughs that you need for you to to move forwards and become unstuck and achieve success in any area of your life.
I enable and support my clients to reconnect to what is important to them, overcome fears and obstacles, gain balance and order and regain control enabling them to make the correct next decisions taking them closer to where they want to be. Gaining clarity and perspective first is the way to knowing what goals to set to create the path for the journey.
I have a background in, and vast knowledge and experience of holistic therapies, women's health, wellbeing, stress management and teaching. I love to enable and facilitate creative self expression and I have a passion for people and life. I learn visually, creatively, reflectively and through experience and this is also how I work best with my clients. I feel I have a rich and eclectic skill set to offer my clients in our work together.
For me to understand what is really truly important and why that is important is key to unlocking a way to live a more balanced, rich and harmonious life that is fulfilling and rewarding. Using counselling and coaching as a way to develop personal strengths and work on recognising weaknesses, can be a great way to enable you to understand what your true values are and unlock your potential which can lead to a greater understanding of the self as well as a more fulfilling life.
Just one of the things that you may discover through working with me is self care, self acceptance and self compassion, which in turn will foster, self esteem, self worth and self belief to enable you to become the person you want to become.
I recognise that the quality of the relationship between me, the therapist and you, the client is the foundation for a successful outcome.
I am also here to help you to achieve the practical goals that you wish to achieve by giving you accountability, encouragement, motivation and support.
My journey here has not been linear, however I feel that everything I have ever learned and experienced has enabled me to grow as a person and a therapist. I not only have my extensive professional knowledge and experience to bring to my therapy sessions, I also have a wealth of my own personal experiences and learning to bring which I feel hugely enriches what I can offer my clients in the way of help.
I continue to learn, grow and study to improve myself and my practice, and currently split my time between my coaching clients, teaching, writing, and other freelance work in the health & wellbeing sector.
