Psychotherapist & Counsellor in Shrewsbury
I offer in-person psychotherapy and counselling for individuals. My practice is based in central Shrewsbury, Shropshire. I work with people seeking help for anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and other issues, including trauma. I am a senior-accredited therapist with over 20 years experience.
In this introductory meeting we can explore your reasons for seeking therapy and what you hope to gain from the process. It's a useful starting point that can help you feel clearer about whether or not to proceed, and whether you think we could work together. Some people find that a few counselling sessions can help them address a specific issue, while others choose to work on a longer-term basis to help focus on deeper problems.
I work as a Person-Centred or Client-Centred therapist and clinical supervisor.
Person-Centred Therapy is based on a therapeutic relationship from which you can learn to draw from, and trust, new understandings that can change emotional and behavioural patterns recognised as unhelpful or problematic.
Senior Accredited with the NCPS, I supervise other psychotherapists, counsellors and clinical therapists working in the Telford, Wrekin and Shropshire areas. I have worked as a counsellor in universities, mental health agencies, and in the private sector.
People come to me for help with a wide range of problems. Here are a few of the more common difficulties that can be addressed in psychotherapy:
