Client Experience

I try to ensure my clients feel seen and heard, that I create a hopeful, holding space for them to delve into the concerns that led them to counselling. Being Client-Centred I want to ensure they experience a permissive, non-judgemental and empathic space (a safe base) where insights can arise and difficult issues can be unpacked and explored.

Therapeutic Approach

I work from a relational framework. For me, rapport and connection are crucial in creating safety and containment. I use an Attachment-informed and Client-Centred approach. Psycho-education, Mindfulness and other Self-Regulatory tools are also incorporated into my work.
