Restoration Counselling offers a safe, confidential space to talk through your concerns with a trained, professional Counsellor. A place to heal, rebuild, restore, and become all you were meant to be.

As an independent Counsellor/Psychotherapist in private practice, I offer short-term Counselling & longer-term, in-depth Psychotherapy for issues including:

Abuse, Anxiety, Bereavement, Depression, Despair, Difficulties after Abortion, Divorce, Grief, Low Self-Confidence, Low Self-Esteem, Loneliness, Loss, Miscarriage, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Pregnancy-related difficulties and loss, Relationship problems, Sadness, Separation, Stillbirth, Stress, Trauma.

I trained at Heartwood Institute of Counselling & Psychotherapy in Dartington as an Integrative Counsellor.

Believing each person to be unique, with differing thoughts, feelings and responses, I offer a model of counselling called Gestalt therapy. This considers the whole person – mind, body, spirit and emotion. I also integrate theories/approaches and methods from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Person-Centred Counselling, Body Process, Transpersonal, IFS, and Inner Child.

My work includes a range of creative counselling resources if desired. I have particular experience of working with trauma, loss and abuse.

As a Person-Centred Supervisor, I also provide Supervision for trainee and qualified Counsellors, as well as other professionals.

What is the difference between Counselling and Psychotherapy?

Counselling usually refers to shorter-term, more structured work which focusses on helping and supporting clients with common life problems or mental health issues, i.e. depression, anxiety, phobias, or relationship difficulties.

Psychotherapy focuses on working with clients longer-term and draws from insight into emotional problems and difficulties.  It focuses on a deeper awareness of emotional issues and looks at the foundations of issues and problems.

How quickly will you get in touch with me?
