Description
Drawing upon evidence-based therapies such as cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). Each session will be tailored to your unique needs and goals. Together we will work collaboratively to develop coping strategies, build resilience, and cultivate self-compassion. My style of counselling combines warmth and sensitivity, with directness, playfulness and humour, where appropriate. Counselling can be challenging, but it doesn’t have to be all hard work!
