I have worked as a counsellor for over 12 years, supporting clients with a variety of needs both in my private practice and within a non-profit organisation. This has involved delivering school-based counselling as well as therapeutically working with client referrals from commissioned services such as Northamptonshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust (NHFT) and Serenity Referral Center.
Within my private practice, I offer the flexibility of working with clients face-to-face, online or over the telephone.
I work with all age groups, specialising in working with children and young people. My therapeutic approach stems from a Person Centred perspective, with a blend of different therapeutic processes to form an integrative way of supporting clients. This means that the sessions I offer are tailored to meet the client's individual needs. I can incorporate techniques from CBT, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Attachment Theories, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Creative Therapy or Theraplay, particularly geared towards my younger clients.
Some of the difficulties I have supported clients through include, dealing with stress, anxiety and depression, trauma, adverse childhood experiences, loss and bereavement, bullying, self-injury, self-confidence issues and suicide ideation, among many others.
My role as a therapist specifically involves facilitating a safe space for clients to explore and work through difficulties they are experiencing, be it emotional, psychological, behavioural or spiritual.
