My core focus as a counsellor is to provide you with person-centred support, so what I offer is a private space for your voice to be heard and a relationship in which you feel supported and understood.
During our counselling sessions, I will work hard to listen and encourage your autonomy with warmth and understanding, so you feel able to talk in a respectful space.
The empathic approach takes into account your individual circumstances and is based on the belief (or credence!) that connection is a very human need, in order to withstand life’s challenges.
Perhaps you feel nobody understands what you are going through at the moment?
In my practice, I have worked with people suffering anxiety, depression, loss, stress, burnout, low self-esteem and relational challenges. Counselling provides a private place for you to talk with someone who will listen carefully to understand you and your experiences.
For more information about the person-centred approach, based on the work of Carl Rogers, please visit the Person-Centred Association.
