Personal Profile
I trained as a counsellor at Wigan college whilst teaching ESOL and gaining my teachers certificate.
I have always found that I have a natural empathy with people and over the years have always been advised to go into counselling. After doing an introductory course I knew that this was indeed my calling.
As part of my training I did my placement at a doctors surgery where I am still providing a counselling service. The issues are diverse and challenging, from depression, stress and anxiety to trauma, addiction and abuse. I offer long and short term therapy. I have been with the surgery now for over two years.
Work Approach
Person Centred Counselling is I feel an holistic approach to therapy. I do not offer advise or give homework but work with you, the client to find your answers to your problems, no matter how big or small you may feel they may be.
I offer you the space to be listened to, heard and understood. I will walk beside you as you find yourself and your way of being that enables you to live a more full and satisfying life.
This approach brings together the way you feel with the way you think. It can help you find a way to bring the mind and body( your feelings), together. In this way we can look at where we have lost our self belief, help rebuild our self esteem and find hope where we feel we have none.
In every person is the capability for change. To do this we first learn to become aware of what we need to change, what we want to change and what we CAN change.
The first step towards change is awareness.
If you feel that you are not being heard, that no one understands you then Person Centred Counselling can help. No issue is too small or too big. The answers are there for us to find and the first step towards awareness and change is in your hands with your counsellor working alongside you as your guide.
