Counselling
Counselling is a talking therapy that allows you to talk about your problems and explore difficult feelings in a confidential environment. Counselling aims to help you deal with issues that are confusing, painful or uncomfortable.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is a talking therapy that helps you manage your problems and improve how you feel by changing the way you think and behave.

Relationship/Couples Therapy
I have been helping individuals with relationship issues since 2014 and I decided to provide couples therapy so that both partners can attend sessions.

Telephone & Online Appointments
There are many different methods that can be used to deliver online therapy such as Zoom and Microsoft Teams. If you would like to have online therapy you can choose a method that you feel comfortable using.

Supervision Services
Supervision is an essential requirement for trainee counsellors and newly qualified and experienced practitioners. Supervision provides a means to review therapeutic work to ensure ethical and effective practice.
Work-related Therapy/Employee Counselling
I provide employee counselling services for organisations based in the North East and throughout the UK. Part of my work with organisations involves being the counsellor for an Occupational Health Company.
