"Our History is not our destiny"  (Alan Cohen)
I have been working as a qualified counsellor for 17 years. I believe in counselling and the benefits it can have for you and your relationships. Counselling gives you the opportunity to talk to someone like me in confidence, who has no other role in your life. Sometimes family and friends find it hard to listen to their loved ones talking about their emotional pain. They often want to take away the pain and give advice. Or you might find it impossible to know who to talk to or who you can trust. As your counsellor I will listen to you, and support you with your very painful and difficult thoughts and feelings. It could really help improve your quality of life.

These have been taken from cards and emails my clients have sent me over the years, I have their permission to share them with you.

​"What an amazing person you are you have seen me through the most difficult time of my life. Thankyou so much."

"Im glad I found the right person to talk to. Thankyou for your expertise in helping me on the way to recovery. I thought I'd never feel happy again."

"You have helped me to change my life, thankyou."

"I am not really sure how to thankyou as any words I use will not express how you helped me. Thankyou for listening."

​A client sent this to me after her first counselling session with me. "Last night was really helpful, and I came away feeling like a weight had been lifted, thanks."
