Qualifications & Experience

Experience
3+ years in Counselling
I completed my placement hours at PCI Low Cost Counselling Service where I spent two years working with adults both in sessions and online. I also have just under two years working in Private Practice where I assist clients wuth varying issues such as low mood/depression; anxiety; stress; bereavement/loss and grief; disability, bullying, chronic illness; family issues, life transitions; low self-esteem, relationship issues; trauma; generalised anxiety disorder, panic, social anxiety, phobias, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD); trauma and suicide
Approach I work from a person-centred perspective and aim to build a trusting therapeutic relationship with the client, explore personal issues, thoughts and feelings, to help develop growth and healing. I work collaboratively with each client, tailoring my approach to meet the individual need and preferences of each client, and helping to select the best tools and strategies to help clients realise full potential for positive change. I often combine this with an integrative approach when I feel this may be helpful such as evidence-based therapeutic interventions including Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and psychoanalysis.
