Qualifications:
BACP (Accredited)
Accredited Voluntary Register, Professional Standards Authority. I attend regular continued professional development to widen my experience and allow me to adapt my approach to my clients needs.
The way I work:
I work with my clients offering a trusting snd secure environment where it will feel comfortable to explore and build a better understanding of their presenting difficulties. I work together with the client to find alternative ways to manage their issues and difficulties.
My approach is based on Psychodynamic theory and focuses on developing greater emotional awareness and control, building self esteem and self confidence and recognition of the power of communication and emotional connections with others.
Each individual is different and in recognition of this I will tailor my approach to the sessions, adjusting to the attributes and personality of each client. I respect the client's autonomy and comfort in working with their emotions.
I offer in-person sessions, and can also work online either intermittently for added convenience, or on a regular basis.
