How can counselling help me?

We all have times in our lives when we experience difficulties. These can be related to our relationships with partners or family, life events like birth, death or serious illness, or difficult experiences from our past that make it hard to deal with things in the present.

Often a friend or family member can be a good support during these times. Sometimes it can be hard to talk to those around you. This could be because they are directly involved with the difficulty, have different views from you or are also struggling to understand the issue. Sometimes the issue or problem feels too personal for you to feel able to talk to them.

As a qualified counsellor I can provide professional support at these times. I offer a confidential space where you can be helped to find new resources which could help you approach your difficulties in a new way.

I do not give advice but with the skills and approaches I have been trained to use, I will help you find your own answers.

As a counsellor I do not judge, I am here to help. I have been a counsellor for 26 years and have a lot of experience helping people who are dealing with emotionally traumatic events, both in the present and in the past.
