Find a Counsellor in Sonning Common

I am an individual and couples counsellor. I offer my clients a safe and non judgement space to explore their issues. I work collaboratively with my clients to help them gain a deeper understanding of themselves. This will help them improve the quality of their lives by finding other options and choices, leading to a happier and more fulfilling life. I help my clients to build on their inner strengths and grow their resillience, which in turn leads to feelings of empowerment.

As a therapist my aim is to provide hope in facing distress and to accompany you in your change towards living a more fulfilled life. As a humanistic therapist my main goal of therapy is to see the human before me and help you face the challenges life brings. I look to identify patterns which could be repeating in your life and causing a sense of stuckness. I work with issues such as:

able /ˈeɪb(ə)l/ adjective 1. having the power, skill, means, or opportunity to do something. Try as we might, life is not always easy & there may be times when we need additional support. Whether this is in the form of regular sessions to address a specific concern, develop strategies & learn tools to be equipped to cope, or a one-off appointment to debrief with a neutral & compassionate third party in order to gain perspective, help is available.

We all have times in our lives when we struggle with issues such as stress, anxiety, bereavement, loss, failure, relationships or lack of belief in ourselves. Exploring these issues in a safe, confidential, non-judgemental space can be very beneficial and can bring about change. I offer this space, using my background in family law, in which I helped people who were facing the most stressful of family situations, which led me to become a counsellor helping people struggling with issues relating to their current relationships or stemming from past experiences.

Taking that initial first step to get help can be the most challenging but often the most significant step in your journey to self-exploration and personal growth. Counselling offers you a safe space to explore difficult thoughts and feelings in complete confidence, without being judged, allowing you to explore your life, relationships and emotions in a way that is not possible with friends and family.

We coach the person, not the problem! Coaching is a form of development in which a person called a coach in this case (me) supports a client (you) in achieving a specific personal or professional goal or challenge by providing coaching and or mentoring. Its a safe space just for you! I start with a free 30 min introductory call to see if we can work together! Member of the ICF.
