Therapists
I am a fully qualified CPCAB Therapeutic Counsellor and a registered member of British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I offer one-to-one counselling for adults in person and online. Both short-term and long-term therapy are available, tailored to your individual needs. To ensure I am the right fit for you, I offer an initial phone consultation before you commit to counselling.
I specialise in working with adults who have experienced trauma, including childhood sexual abuse. Survivors may live with feelings of shame, guilt, anger, fear or worthlessness, and often experience anxiety, panick attacks, flashbacks, and difficulties forming trusting relationships. These challenges can feel overwhelming and isolating, leaving you unsure of how to move forward. Starting counselling can feel daunting, particularly when opening up about painful and deeply personal experiences. Finding the right therapist is an important step in creating the safety and trust needed to begin your healing journey. As a trauma-informed therapist with Humanistic approach, I combine an understanding of the impact of trauma with strong belief in every individual's worth, dignity, and capacity for self-healing. I provide a safe and supportive space where you can explore your experiences, gain a clearer understanding of your thoughts and emotions, and work through the difficulties and behaviours connected to trauma. Together, we can focus on rebuilding a sense of safety, control, resilience and empowerement, helping you to move towards a more positive and fullfiling life.
I have undertaken specialised training in trauma therapy to enable me to work with adults who have experienced sexual abuse. I have volounteered for a national mental health organisation where I have worked with trauma, depression, anxiety, bereavement, ASD, ADHD and other issues. I am also working for a charity organisation who supports survivors of sexual abuse and rape.
