Are you facing difficulties in life that are just too hard to cope with alone? Building a strong, trusting relationship with my clients through a sensitive, reflective and focused approach helps us to navigate towards understanding and finding the right way through for you.
About me and my practice
My priority is helping people who are struggling with low self-esteem and self-confidence as a result of difficult relationships or experiences in their lives and feel it is holding them back.
Together we will find understanding and perspective along with focused tools and strategies to take with you as you move forward in life.
Personal development is ongoing throughout our lives and counselling helps us to become more confident in our abilities to manage life's challenges.
Experience
I qualified from the University of Abertay in Dundee with a Masters degree in Counselling. Since then I have been helping people from all walks of life when they need support.
I have a great deal of life experience and have found this to be an invaluable resource when listening to people tell their unique stories. We have evolved as social beings to support one other and I believe we all need kindness, compassion, support and encouragement - without judgment- and this is what I aim to offer everyone who comes to me for counselling.

Initial Consultation
The first session is a little different from other sessions. We'll begin to get to know each other a little. It's very important that you feel safe, comfortable and respected, listened to without judgment. I'll explain my approach to counselling, discuss confidentiality and our contract for working together. We'll discuss why you have come for counselling, what you would like to achieve, your concerns, challenges and goals so that I can support you in the best way possible. You'll have the opportunity to ask questions in this session and throughout your counselling; I am always open to feedback. You can discuss any preferences you might have for counselling, for example, you may not want to use worksheets as resources or look at early childhood experiences.
