As a counsellor I see myself as an ‘emotional facilitator’, I work along side my clients supporting them as they explore their issues. Below are some of the well-being issues I have experience of:
| Depression | Bereavement |
| Anxiety | Relationships in crisis |
| Stress | Addiction |
| Redundancy | Trauma |
| Sexual abuse | Work related issues |
| Family issues |
I believe each person has the potential to uncover their own solutions; my role is to support them whilst they do so, helping them to gain insight about underlying psychological drivers impacting their feelings and behaviours.
My counselling approach is integrative, which means I draw on more than one theoretical approach. This allows me to adapt my approach according to individual client needs. The main approaches I draw on are psychodynamic; to uncover underlying psychological patterns developed over time; and MBCT, which focuses on mindfulness and cognitive processing.
