Welcome to this site. I hope you’ll find it useful in finding out a little more about me and how counselling may be of help to you. I offer counselling for both individuals and couples.

 

In all instances we can start with an initial forty minute session, for which there is no charge. It’s not a counselling session as such, more a chance for us to get together and work through any general queries and how the process is likely to work, bit like a test drive. This can include times, dates, costs and any other concerns you might have. If you decide that counselling is not for you, that's ok as we can look at other alternatives that may be of benefit.

 

I practice using an integrated humanistic approach. This style is flexible, and I aim to work to the unique requirements and perspectives you will have. In my previous training and clinical experience I have used approaches such as Person Centered (Rogerian), TA and CBT; and have found all these theories have something to offer when used in an appropriate and respectful manner.

 

There may be any number of reasons why you could be thinking about counselling. Some very generalised though common presenting problems can be ;

 

Bereavement

Loss

Divorce

Addiction

Relationship difficulties

Depression

Anger

Difficulty moving on after a crisis

Stress and anxiety.

Low self esteem

Workplace relationships

 

..... so many ways in which unmet needs or unresolved issues may present themselves. The list could go on. Alternatively, you might not even be able to put words to how you're feeling right now. Possibly only vague feelings of dis-ease and the knowledge that things just aren't right.

 

 

 

In addition to my own practice, I have been involved with a number of voluntary counselling agencies and provided counselling in an addiction rehab setting. I've provided  a stress management facility for NHS staff in the Bristol, a major employee assistance program provider  and also contributed material for BBC radio.
