Psychotherapy, Counselling, EMDR & Clinical Supervision
I am an experienced UKCP Registered Psychotherapist, Certified Transactional Analyst and EMDR Europe Accredited Practitioner offering psychotherapy, counselling and clinical supervision in a confidential, non-judgemental environment. Having lived in different countries throughout my life, I am sensitive to cultural and religious difference as well as issues relating to change and adjustment. I am deeply committed to an ethical and non-discriminatory practice with my clients and abide by the principles and ethics of both the UKCP and BACP.
My Approach
We will work collaboratively for an agreed period of time to explore what you are struggling with and identify ways in which you can enhance your life. I offer brief solution focused counselling for clients requiring targeted support or longer term psychotherapy for those wishing to explore issues in greater depth. Depending on your expectations and presenting issue, I will draw on a variety of approaches to achieving your personal goal for change and growth. Over the course of therapy, we will regularly review the effectiveness of our work together to ensure that progress is being made.
