It can sometimes be difficult to completely open up to friends, relatives or work colleagues for fear of damaging relationships or compromising your career. There are many different kinds of counselling and psychotherapy, and numerous different training programs. So much so, it can be difficult to know what it all means, who you can trust, if the person is properly qualified, and so on. Too often it seems anyone looking for help, especially through the NHS, is likely to be steered towards cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). But many people benefit from a more classic psychotherapy – person-centred, empathetic, compassionate – a “listening experience”. I can provide a calm, unbiased and highly confidential space for you to talk about the problems in your life. I am professionally trained to help you explore your thoughts, feelings and behaviour openly, without fear of being judged. I can support you to find alternative angles and gain new perspective.
