Psychotherapeutic Counselling & Coaching
be who you were meant to beFrom fear to love…
Considering asking for support or entering into any kind of self-development work is a significant step for anyone. It can bring up lots of feelings. However you feel is OK. I am here to support you. Making this choice for yourself is a powerful sign that you are ready for more. You are ready to feel better. You are ready to feel fulfilled, content and confident.
Research tells us that meeting someone in a safe space of non-judgement creates significant change. We feel seen, heard and accepted, and this allows us to show up as who we were always meant to be, before we learned all the (at the time) helpful survival techniques we needed to move through life with all it’s ups and downs. We learned to use what we had available to us at the time, and now we can learn differently, with all the extra resources we have now.
Learning how to feel emotionally safe and how to show up authentically requires compassion, commitment and vulnerability, but the pay off is immeasurable. You get to show up as your most fulfilled and empowered self, and grow your relationships from a place of strength and acceptance.

It takes a village
I've counselled enough immigrant parents over the years to have learned that the phrase 'it takes a village' could not be more accurate.I moved to Portugal to find my own village. Despite being very happy in splendid isolation in the middle of the Welsh hills, I think...
