Is counselling for you?

If you are facing a challenging time right now, then I am glad you have found my website. Everyone can struggle at times and it can be difficult to know how to move forward.

You can end up feeling a bit lost and alone, unsure of where to turn or who to talk to.

I offer a gentle, safe and confidential space in which you can be yourself and work through your challenges.

You may be in the midst of a stressful life event, maybe a bereavement, a break-up or change of circumstance. Perhaps you are feeling overwhelmed, constantly worrying or feeling sad. 

Finding a safe and supportive space in which to work through these feelings can be immensely healing. It is often from the pain and the struggles that the greatest opportunities for growth and change emerge.

Where I work

I am based in the North East of England. I am available for Face to Face counselling in the Gosforth area of Newcastle. I offer walk & talk therapy in the Seaton Valley area. I am also available for the popular option of online counselling. This means I can take clients from anywhere within the U.K.  I work with adults, children and young people. I am a member of the National Counselling Society and adhere to their ethical framework. I have an enhanced DBS certificate. I am registered on the National Counselling Society CYPT (Children and Young People’s) counselling register. 

Can Therapy Help Me?

The following is not an exhaustive list. Some people seek therapy because of a significant life event however choosing to get therapy when your mood is low or when you are struggling with day to day life can also be beneficial. Therapy can help with anything that is causing you concern or that upsets you. It can also help you to be more assertive, set boundaries and encourage healthier self-care.
