About me
SPECIALIST ONLINE COUPLES AND INDIVIDUALS COUNSELLOR I work with couples and individuals facing many different challenges. Making the decision to invest in therapy can feel bewildering and uncertain. Perhaps you are feeling unhappy and unfulfilled and need to understand the causes. Or facing repetitive cycles of disagreements and conflicts. A Breakdown in communication, can affect trust and intimacy. My aim is to help foster more positivity, teach effective communication strategies and provide the time and space for you to work through your feelings. I have experience of working with many diverse couple dynamics. These have included: Repetitive disagreements and conflict Loss of trust through feelings of betrayal Lack of intimacy and a breakdown in communication Different cultural dynamics impacting the relationship Family breakdown Preparing for marriage Considering separation and divorce Managing a healthy work life balance INDIVIDUAL THERAPY: My training with Anxiety UK has allowed me to successfully treat and work with many clients experiencing the different forms of anxiety and depression. I use CBT technqiues to help people uncover unhelpful patterns of thinking and subsequent behaviours and have worked typically in the following areas: - Catastrophising tendencies - Rigid thought patterns - Panic attacks and disorders - Social anxiety and confidence/self esteem issues. - Stress and sleep problems Working as a Bereavement Counsellor, both face to face and online during the Pandemic, has afforded me a real insight into the difficulties faced by grief and loss. This can be experienced in many unexpected ways, including attachment issues and the particular context of the loss. I have been privileged to broaden this work to actively help people also going through different types of losses: - A pet or emotional support animal. - A dream/hope expectation or belief - Experiencing a drastic change in role/work - loss of a job or facing retirement. My therapy style is warm and interactive and I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity and compassion. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy takes courage and I truly hope that this will be the beginning of change for you, as I assist you on your journey to recovery and healing. .......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
