Blog

Welcome to my blog page. I hope that you will find the content useful.

My early blogs aim to provide an introduction to counselling for those who have not had counselling before. These blogs include topics around why people attend counselling, how to choose a counsellor and different ideas about the counselling process. I hope that this will provide you with some guidance on what counselling may be like in the hope of enabling you to get the most from the process once you decide to attend counselling whether that be with me or another counsellor.

As my blog goes on I aim to write more about themes within counselling, self care tips, reflections, insights and other general information.

Please get in touch today if you would like to hear more about counselling with me.
