How I Work

My counselling practice is based on humanistic modalities, including Person-Centred, Gestalt, and Transactional Analysis theories, and is tailored to your unique needs. I received training at Metanoia Institute in London, earning a BSc (Hons) degree in humanistic counselling and a certificate in therapeutic skills & studies.

 

I have experience in working with a spectrum of presenting issues. I use creativity as a counsellor, with tools such as experiments to help deepen the work when appropriate. Sometimes I might use mindfulness techniques to help ground you and create more presence in the room, should you be comfortable doing so.

 

I have a very calm and notable presence in the room, and I am an intent listener. I endeavor to experience your world as much from your perspective as possible. I also like to pay attention to all parts of you, including the body, not just the words spoken. Moreover, I also rely on the energy and feelings present in the room.

 

I may at times gently push to help you take that step towards deeper self-discovery. I also make use of descriptive imagery as part of interpreting your experience, which helps enrich the work.

I believe in the power of self-discovery and autonomy. I am here to hold the torch while you, as the client, do the digging.
