I am an Integrative Counsellor in private practice working in Calne and Chippenham. I use a Person-Centred approach with touches of other related therapies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Solution Focussed Brief Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Transactional Analysis.  This integrative framework and my experiential training enable me to work in a way appropriate to your needs and covering a wide range of issues.

I work with adults and young adults aged 16 years old and over offering long term open-ended support and short interventions for an agreed time.  I offer a place to take some time out to explore thoughts and feelings, feel supported and listened to and to understand the conflict in your life.

I am experienced in helping clients with a wide range of difficulties.  People seek therapy for a variety of reasons:

• Support for eating disorders – Binge eating, Failed dieting, Food cravings, Bulimia and Anorexia
• Alcohol and drug misuse and addiction
• Trying to manage a relationship difficulty with a partner, parent or child
• Experiencing anxiety or panic attacks
• Self-esteem issues or a lack of confidence
• Feeling stressed
• Suffering from depression

Counselling can help resolve difficulties by developing awareness and understanding, opening up new creative possibilities and making change possible.

I am a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) Accredited Counsellor and I am committed to providing counselling in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment; a space to explore difficulties and find a resolution.  As a registered member of the BACP, I am bound by their code of Ethics and Practice. I am also a member of the BACP Private Practice division and an affiliate member of the National Centre for Eating Disorders.
