During counselling, I hope to explore with you your unique situation and help you discover how you would like to tackle your difficulties.  This can take a few weeks or much longer.  I work closely with you to ensure that your time is focused usefully on the dominant issues that you feel will benefit your life the most.

I aim to help you develop your own skills to enable you to cope with the difficulties you are currently facing and to build up your inner skills to be able to look at any future demands and find your own methods of managing.  I am happy to work with male, female or non binary clients and I offer couple therapy.
