COUNSELLING CAN HELP YOU .

WHAT IS COUNSELLING?
Counselling offers you an opportunity to talk about personal issues in a private and relaxed environment, with supportive, attentive listening, and without judgement. It is a chance to share your thoughts and feelings with someone who has no other involvement in your life.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE?
Counselling is for the individual, and so there is no set number of sessions. We would agree a possible timetable, which would be reviewed regularly.

HOW CAN IT HELP?
Counselling may enable you to embark on a journey towards greater self-awareness and clarity. It may help you to - Increase your understanding of life events and their impact on you - Improve your self-esteem - Renew your confidence to face the future You may be experiencing - Relationship difficulties - Anxiety and stress - Changing personal circumstances Or simply want the space and freedom to explore your feelings

WHAT IS INVOLVED?
I work in a person-centred way, focusing on how someone is experiencing the issues in their life at a particular moment in time. This can lead to deeper exploration, resulting in greater understanding and self-acceptance. It may help to identify new ways of coping. If you would like to - feel more comfortable about the person you are - Be clearer about how you want your life to be

ABOUT ME
I spent twenty years working in television in Bristol. I then had a parenting break, during which I realised that I wanted a new challenge. I undertook three years of counselling training at Filton College, Bristol, completing an Introductory course, a Counselling Skills course, and a Higher National Diploma. I have been in counselling placement at the University of the West of England for a year. I adhere to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy Ethical Framework for Good Practice.
