About me and my practice
I work in person at Liverpool City Centre and online/telephone across multiple locations. Person-centred therapy is a talking therapy. It works by providing a safe, accepting, and confidential space where you can explore what is going on in your life without any judgement. It can help by allowing you to talk freely, increasing self-awareness, developing acceptance, and helping you to make positive changes. I understand that everyones experience is different so we can progress at a rate that is comfortable for you.
Experience
Before going into private therapy practice, I worked in retail, care/support work, at harmony general counselling service, and Liverpool domestic abuse service. I work with a range of issues; however, my main experience and interest is with depression, SAD, stress, anxiety, relationships, neurodivergence, abuse, and eating disorders. I regularly engage in clinical supervision and training to ensure my continuing professional development, I am insured and I hold an enhanced DBS.
Qualifications
BSc (Hons) Applied Psychology First Class
Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy
