Having personally seen the true benefits of counselling through both my study as well as my own personal life experiences and therapy, this has inspired me to become qualified as a psychotherapeutic or pluralistic counsellor. I started my career in mental health nursing very keen to help others. Whilst this left with me a lot of pride and enjoyed this hard work, I was left with not addressing my own issues and needs leading to illness. This was a stark message into how our minds and bodies are so interlinked and made me re evaluate my life and career. Therefore, I really appreciate the value of seeing the self as a whole person with both the mental and physical body working together whilst ensuring we provide ourselves with self-compassion. My study, life experience and own personal therapy has induced my own physical and mental healing in a profound way allowing for a lot of ‘answers’ to questions. This has given me deep aspirations to help others achieve the same. My commitment to you is to offer a place to be truly listened to in a safe, non-judgemental, trusting space. I can share tools and knowledge to allow growth and wellbeing whilst working within my sphere of competence to help improve wellbeing. Whilst I do not currently work with couples, under 18’s and those with significant enduring mental illness, I welcome a broad range of people and issues to my practice on an online or face to face basis. I especially enjoy working with those who have had troubled childhoods and are looking to work with their inner child
