Newbury & Thatcham, Berkshire.

Counselling Services

I provide a confidential and safe environment to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without fear of judgment. I am a Member of British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and bound by professional ethics to maintain confidentiality, ensuring that you can freely express yourself.

Together, we will work towards understanding your concerns, identifying goals, and developing strategies to address them.

Through self-exploration and self-discovery you will gain awareness into your emotions, behaviours, and patterns of thinking that can lead to positive changes and personal growth.

Through the process you will uncover underlying patterns of behaviour and beliefs that may be contributing to your struggles and exploring these patterns and beliefs gain clarity and perspective, enabling you to make informed choices and changes in your life.
