A range of working environments and experiences outside of work has led me to appreciate the many challenges that life presents and the difficulties that we face whilst striving to grow.
I believe that human relationships which are empathic, genuine and respectful can form a basis for growth in any setting – it is the relationship itself which can help us change. I aim to be real, open and engaged as an active participant in the therapeutic work.
The feedback I get from clients often speaks of the quality of the relationship we build. People have said they felt it was a defining feature of our work together.
It therefore goes without saying that offering you a warm and respectful space is a priority, and I can assure you that what we share will be confidential.
