Welcome

Do you feel ‘stuck’ in life? Have you been signed off from work, college or university with anxiety or stress. Perhaps feeling low or depressed is preventing you from enjoying the ‘sunshine‘ moments of your life. For many reasons, life can be messy, often it’s simply not the way we‘d hoped or planned.

Divorce, separation, job loss, bereavements and difficulties in relationships can lead to emotional suffering, anxiety and stress. Adverse childhood experiences, trauma and abuse (recent or historic) can cause suffering and confusion resulting in deep pain that can negatively affect mental well-being.
​

Counselling can help you navigate the difficulties that are causing emotional and mental suffering and provide support as you work towards building a more fulfilled and contented life. Counselling provides the opportunity to gain perspective and helps you consider how you would like to move forward in life. It can also help you understand yourself and others better, leading to a clearer understanding of your challenges.

Life and well-being coaching are powerful tools for personal growth, helping you to navigate challenges, gain clarity, and align your actions with your true values. Whether you're facing difficult decisions, seeking greater fulfillment, or striving to reach your full potential, coaching offers a supportive space to explore your goals and overcome obstacles. Through this process, you'll reassess limiting beliefs, resolve inner conflicts, and develop a clearer sense of purpose. With a focus on self-discovery and practical strategies, coaching empowers you to create positive change and build a life that reflects your aspirations.

My focus is to work with you to develop the strategies and skills that will reduce and alleviate the negative impact of the difficulties affecting your day-to-day life. This can lead to positive changes for you, your family, your work life, and your relationships resulting in improved mental health and greater enjoyment of life.

Shame is a common theme, often stemming from childhood. It is associated with many negative emotions, such as feelings of anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem and can lead to substance use, self-harm and suicidal behaviours. More often than not, shame leads to disconnection, from yourself and your emotions and also from others, leading to isolation. Living with shame can be lonely and demoralising however, healing the wounds of shame is possible.

My counselling room is located in Bournemouth, BH10 and is easily accessible from Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch and surrounding areas.
I work 1-1, with individuals aged 16+, by appointment only.
I also work online throughout the UK and abroad.
