I have a person-centred approach to therapy. I am a sensitive and intuitive person and would work with you providing a place you can feel safe and supported to talk about anything that may come up for you. I am interested in how to work best with you and will do my best to accommodate any preferences you may have and be flexible in approach. I will offer support and challenge you to reflect on your experiences, understand limiting long-held beliefs and re-connect with yourself to find new perspectives from within. Given the right conditions, everyone is capable of finding true self-acceptance and fulfilment in life. A warm welcome and a calm place to feel heard as yourself
