I consider it a deep privilege to be a therapist, and every relationship I build with a client is unique, personal, and intimate. This relationship is at the heart of therapy, and it will develop and grow over time as we work together.
As an accredited counsellor and member of the British Association for Counseling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I have expertise in bereavement, anxiety, depression and stress, as well as relationship counselling. I use an integrative approach combining Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and other psychotherapies.
I was pondering about what blog to write for the New Year when my daughter reminded me that 2021 also signifies the beginning of a new decade. I’m glad she did as this changed everything. I felt quite excited at the prospect of looking back over the past ten years. My thoughts flew to various places and events; and the people I was with during those memories. Rather than focusing on the end of the decade, which has been discussed, televised, and written about endlessly and has ended up being defined in one word, ‘Covid’ I am going to reflect on the last ten years. This helps me to bring a sense of balance and perspective, while remembering all the joys and privileges life gave me from the nine years prior.
