Supporting your Growth and Healing

About

About Me

Are you looking for a safe space to explore sensitive issues? I am a friendly, qualified and experienced counsellor offering counselling to adults face to face in Croydon and online and telephone counselling across the country and beyond.

 

I firmly believe that we are all capable of growth and change, and that this can happen at any stage of our lives. Counselling can bring new insights into ourselves, and these 'new shoots' can grow into into real and lasting change. 

​

I've helped many people work through issues such as anxiety, depression, family and relationship issues, anger, abuse and much more. I'm passionate about supporting people to become their best selves and to lead happy fulfilling lives. Want to know more? Please feel free to explore  my website.

My Specialisms

 Depression and Anxiety
Families and Relationships
Women's Issues

If you're struggling with anxiety and or depression, it can be dibilitating and it's often difficult to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I've helped many clients identify the difficult issues and emotions underlying their depression or anxiety while working to overcome negative patterns of thinking with pratical, evidenced based techniques.

Healthy relationships are essential for a happy life, but they can also be challenging. Whether you're struggling with family issues, poor communication, trust issues, or other relationship problems, counselling can help you explore and improve your personal relationships.

Women often face challenges that are specific to their gender, such as body image issues, post partum depression, motherhood and  fertility issues, sexism, stereotyping and societal pressures to conform with the cultural norms that are expected of them. 

I provide a safe, non-judgemental space to explore and work through these issues.

Childhood Abuse and Neglect

If you have experienced childhood abuse or neglect, it can have a profound impact on your life. I we provide a safe and supportive environment where you can work through your trauma and begin the healing process.  

Training

I'm a qualified adult education teacher with many years experience delivering workshops, seminars and training on counselling and mental health related topics for health professionals and the general public. I can design and deliver appropriate and impactful workshops and training programmes for your organisation.

Supervision for Individuals and Groups

Ethical, knowledgable and reflective supervision is essential for safe, competent practice. That's why I offer supervision for individuals, groups and other helping professionals. I can provide you with the support and guidance you need to grow and improve as a therapist.
