As a counsellor I believe in connecting people with their own skills and knowledge of what makes their life satisfying and meaningful.I believe in building a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship, and value the expertise people bring about their own lives.My practice is guided by Narrative and Solution-Focused ideas that see people as separate to their problems, who can focus on possibilities and can take action to live out their hopes for the future.Creativity and connection to nature also guide my therapeutic work. As an arts therapist, I use creative processes to help people explore, express and make sense of their experiences. I give clients the opportunity to reconnect with nature and experience its ability to restore well-being.Being transparent and working in partnership with you is also very important to me. I will ask for your feedback and be authentic and honest in how I work.
