If you’re reading this then you have made the first step in getting some help and support for yourself.
I am a fully qualified counsellor with over 9 year’s experience of counselling. By sharing your thoughts and feelings with me you would be building a relationship with me and no longer managing things all on your own. I will offer you respect and support without judging you. I will encourage you to explore the situations that are causing you a problem and help you to focus on what exactly is wrong. You can then look with me for new ways of understanding them and problem-solving perhaps by challenging them, or changing how you deal with them in the future.
I will not give you advice or tell you what to do but support you in finding your own way, by listening and reflecting what is said, giving you space to explore your thoughts and feelings about yourself and your relationship with others. Together we can work through personal, psychological or emotional problems, as well as relationship and any family difficulties.
As a Counsellor I have many years experience of helping with a wide range of issues that affect the emotional well-being of adults including: Depression, anxiety, self-injury, compulsive behaviours, anger management, relationship difficulties, loss, drug and alcohol problems, low self esteem, body image, sexuality issues, abuse, bereavement...and with many other issues that can seem too difficult to manage on your own.
I work from a welcoming and perfectly situated consulting room at the Cheltenham Natural Health Clinic, which is located in the Maxima Forum building on the Lansdown road (A40) in Cheltenham Gloucestershire. The building is in the heart of Cheltenham’s Montpellier, five minutes drive from junction 11 of the M5. It is ideally situated for those living in Cheltenham and easily reached from Gloucester, Stroud, Cirencester and because of the easy access to the motorway also easily reached from Worcester and Evesham. There is ample off road free parking on the premises.
