To the extent that I managed to translate the emotions into images– that is to say, to find the images which were concealed in the emotions– I was inwardly calmed and reassured. Had I left those images hidden in the emotions, I might have been torn to pieces by them” - Jung

How I work

I am a fully trained and qualified therapeutic counsellor. I have an integrative training background which means I am able to adapt my approach depending on what best fits your needs. You may wish to explore life events which are having an impact on you now with a goal of finding the best way forward or you may wish to explore past childhood events in order to gain greater insight into current patterns in your life. You may wish to work with dreams working at a deeper level of the unconscious. I have worked with people of all ages starting from young children in primary school through to adults in later stages of their life.
