We all experience difficulties and challenges in our lives.
Sometimes, problems can feel overwhelming, even unbearable.
At times, we may feel that we ourselves are the problem.
Does this sound like you or someone you know?
As a counsellor and psychotherapist, based near the Hampshire border in Farnham, Surrey, I use my experience to help you cope better with life’s challenges and issues. We live in particularly difficult and uncertain times - I can support you with this.
I offer a non-judgemental, confidential space where, together, we can explore the challenges you face. Some facts of our lives cannot be changed – having happened already or, for example, illness or impending loss. As your therapist, I aim to offer you the relationship and support you need to reflect on, and be more able to cope with difficult life events. I believe therapy includes developing a deeper understanding of ourselves in the context of past and present experiences, environment and choices. I also believe we all have an innate ability to heal and that therapy can help to remove obstacles in our path – helping us shift from a life where we merely survive to one in which we develop an intention to thrive, despite life’s challenges.
As a counsellor and psychotherapist, I have worked with clients and helped them to overcome a wide range of difficulties. My background as a solicitor helps me to support senior leaders, executives and professionals suffering from anxiety, stress, burn-out, imposter syndrome and other challenges. This is a cornerstone of my practice. I also have extensive experience of working with survivors of sexual violence and trauma. I am an accredited member of the Foundation for Infant Loss Training and have helped clients with a broad range of other specialist topics - please contact me so that we can work together on your wellbeing.
