Whether your problems are identifiable, or confusing, counselling can help you deal with emotions that are difficult to understand, gain fresh insights into your life and work through your difficulties to find the best way forward. Counselling is a collaborative process - a safe and confidential space to explore and talk openly without discrimination or judgement. Taking the first steps to contact a counsellor can be difficult, but an initial consultation can help you address any concerns you may have. All enquiries are strictly confidential and you do not need a GP referral to make an appointment. To set up an initial consultation or to discuss any questions or concerns you may have please contact me by telephone or e-mail. These are some of the areas I work in: -Depression -Anxiety and Stress -Relationship difficulties including divorce -Low self esteem and confidence -Career difficulties, and work related issues such as bullying -Loss, bereavement and serious illness e.g cancer / HIV -Trauma including violent crime and rape -Infertility, postnatal depression, termination and abortion -Sexual issues, Sexuality and Identity Qualifications & Training I completed my training as a counsellor at WPF Therapy, one of the leading training institutions in the UK with a reputation for clinical and academic excellence. It is accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy ( UKCP). I hold a WPF Advanced Diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling and a Post-Graduate Diploma in Psychodynamic Studies from Roehampton University. This is a four year training which includes substantial clinical experience and personal psychoanalytical therapy as well as theoretical understanding and academic attainment. I am a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP) and a professional member of the Foundation for Psychotherapy and Counselling (FPC).Both these organisations have strict ethical codes, and professional standards of confidentility and practice to which I subscribe.
