Counselling and stress management in Southampton

Creative CPD for therapists

Welcome

Healing possibilities

Sometimes, despite our best efforts, we just get stuck. Maybe you're:


Counselling could help you take positive and freedom-bringing steps towards:

'Though you can't go back
and make a new beginning,
you can start from now and
make a brand-new ending'
Carl Bard

While I've got many years of experience working with university students, graduates and early career professionals, I enjoy working with people of all ages and backgrounds. Wherever you come from, I'm interested in your story and exploring ways to help you move from stuckness towards freedom.


It'd be good to hear from you, but please check my availability and FAQs if you're thinking about arranging an appointment. I wish you well on your healing journey.

Hopeful words from some people I've worked with

'You were flexible, understanding and patient.'
‘Really valued being able to explore and understand things more.’
‘The intensity of anger I was feeling has lessened significantly.’
'I can cope better even though life is still very stressful.'
'A valuable experience which was a great help to me.'

Face-to-face and online support

While many people I work with live in Southampton, some also come from places like Winchester, Salisbury, Romsey, Portsmouth, Petersfield, the New Forest, Fareham, Eastleigh, Chandlers Ford, Basingstoke and Bournemouth. There’s free parking where we’d meet and good bus services to my practice. While I prefer working face-to-face, I also offer video appointments which gives flexibility and also enables us to work together if you live further away from Southampton.
