My aim is to help you achieve your goals, helping you overcome your limiting beliefs and possible emotional issues that are preventing you from living the life you want, making you also emotionally resilient in the process. This means you will be able to continue your life journey with self-confidence in your abilities to face future challenges. All my work is a conjunction of hypnotherapy and psychotherapy as well as Neuro-Linguistic Programming and counselling. All work is carried out in a relaxed state (a hypnotic trance) which enables real change to take place thanks to work done with your subconscious mind. You will be aware at all time and my work is bound by a strict code of ethics.

I work with the client to discover their inner strengths and solutions using on the most part, a person centred approach but I also use an eclectic mix of other theories depending on the clients personal needs.  Clients are often unaware that they have the strength and knowledge within themselves to find solutions to the issues they are experiencing.  With a little gentle exploration, coupled with the support counselling/psychotherapy offers they unlock their own answers and this in turn empowers them to take control of their lives.  Changes don't always come easy and to make changes can be pretty difficult but when clients feel supported it enables them to look at themselves in a different way and to make the necessary changes.  Some clients even say "I've never said that out loud" or "it feels good to say that out in the open", and they know that from this point forward they can work towards making changes and feeling better in themselves.   Counselling brings about awareness and when you become aware of what it is that is causing you concern or anxiety, stress or discomfort you can take steps to alter, adapt or change it in order to lead a more contented life.  The ripple effect of change begins in the counselling room but eventually it filters into everyday life.

I provide a strictly confidential non judgmental environment and work from an integrated Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) perspective..  I work with Individuals who are over 18 years of age. People decide to have counselling for all sorts of reasons. perhaps there are problems in your life right now or maybe you have experienced something in the past that continues to cause you distress. Sometimes the issues are not so clear and perhaps you feel something is wrong without being able to identify the exact reason.
