My approach
​​​​Trained initially in the person-centred approach, I offer sessions that are devoted to your needs and goals. We can work on goals you have identified, we can draw some goals up together or we can take a more organic approach and take each session as it comes.
​
Once qualified, I chose to study CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) and can offer structured sessions with a view to look for patterns in thinking that may no longer be working for you. And we can explore how we can reframe these thoughts.
​​
Attending a course on creative approaches to counselling means we can incorporate more active or imaginative ways to explore beliefs, thoughts and assumptions.
