I offer counselling in Bedfordshire from my practice in Biggleswade, supporting you in exploring feelings of anxiety, depression and general stuckness.  Together we can make sense of what's holding you back and help you to regain a greater sense of control in yuor life, for example:

  • talk about your issues without fear of being judged or criticised so you can offload to have space to think more clearly.

  • build more confidence in the choices you make and develop  your own coping strategies that work for you

  • set your own boundaries so you have more space to live the way you want to, and to sleep better at night and lessen the guilt of saying no in work or personal relationships.

​

I work with Domestic abuse, self harm, suicidal thoughts, life transitions, loss, bereavement, stress all in a Trauma-infomed way.

My approach
I work using an integrative approach which means I use a range of theoretical ideas and skills to support your understanding and emotional wellbeing, for example Psychodynamic- past experiences, unconscious thoughts and feelings that may have come from childhood, Existential- life, death, acceptance of how things are and finding a purpose, and Person-centred- Looking at what's happening in your life now.
I use a range of creative methods to help you to explore and gain an increased understanding of yourself this may include using sand, paints, clay and other creative mediums.

All my work is trauma- informed and I work with the idea that we hold our unprocessed emotions in our bodies, this can lead to us feeling disconnected from ourselves and we have a tendency to think rather than feel. Part of the work we can do is to become more self aware and to notice how to stop repeating feelings of being stuck in the past and living more in the present from a place of safety.

​

I also have an interest in loss, grief and bereavement and how loss is not only part of being human but how we can navigate ourselves through difficult times in order to thrive rather than survive.
