Counselling

My Counselling approach, whilst being integrative depending on your needs, is strongly influenced by Person Centered Counselling and the work of Carl Rogers. I employ a warm and caring therapeutic environment incorporating a gentle technique which supports you as the client to work through difficult feelings at your own pace in a comfortable, accepting and safe space. My areas of special interest focus on sexuality counselling, offering a supportive environment for LGBT, relationship and fertility issues. Additionally I hold a wealth of experience in anxiety, stress management, abuse counselling and general counselling.

Hypnotherapy

My Hypnotherapy approach is a gentle, non invasive treatment which has a multitude of uses for health, for wellbeing and for personal growth. Using relaxation techniques and following my voice can help you reach a place of sleep-like calm. You are fully in control and consciously aware, so you cannot be coerced against your will. During normal consciousness we all have defense mechanisms which often stop us "hearing" what is being said to us and likewise we tend to defend against what we tell ourselves. When the subconscious mind is engaged, as it is in Hypnotherapy, it helps us to incorporate the thought and behavior changes we desire with greater ease and acceptance. Hypnotherapy is a facilitative process to enable you to achieve positive change.
