BACP Ethical Framework

Person Centered

I am trained in Integrative Counselling, so I can offer a wide range of different counselling methods to suit the client .


My  prefered approach is Person Centered. I believe that every being holds their own answers within them. By building a trusting relationship we can journey together to find the answers.


Carl Rogers (Person Centered) believed that there is one human motive in life and that is the actualizing tendency where humans move towards their ultimate self with growth and fulfilment with their own potential. 


All sessions are client led and as an integrative therapist I am able to use a variety of approaches, working flexibly to suit the needs of each individual client.


All sessions are confidential and non judgemental. 

Ocean View Therapy Room

My Counselling Room faces the Ocean, with a calm and tranquil setting, you will feel at ease in sharing your journey in this safe environment.


I also offer online and telephone counselling sessions,
