ABOUT ME
My career started out after undertaking Counselling myself and seeing the huge benefit it can have.
I have a lot of life experience and understanding of the importance of life and the struggles we all face, through my own trials and professional workings.
I am an Exeter based Integrative Counsellor, which means I am able to draw on a variety of methods and techniques to best assist you maintaining very relaxed, patient led sessions giving you the opportunity to grow and develop as best you can, helping you to help yourself. I work creatively in a variety of ways to help you feel comfortable and open up in a safe space. My approach is based on working in the here and now looking at whats going on for you whilst also paying attention to attachment and unfinished cycles in the past. I intertwine this by using creative ways of working which I find to help deepen the sessions.
I offer both long and short term counselling dependant on your needs.
I specialise in therapy for Survivors of Domestic Abuse and Trauma, I have a wider knowledge and interest in Relationships, Men's Therapy, Women's Empowerment and Parenthood. However thats not to say I only see clients needing therapy for this.
