Counselling is often seen as a journey of self discovery which takes place in a space that is private and confidential. A space where one explores one's feelings, thoughts and actions with someone who is non judgmental and who truly listens. The counsellor- client relationship and the skills that the counsellor uses in listening and responding appropriately enables a person to find their own truth in order to lead a happier life.

    Supervision



    According to BACP's ethical framework all counsellors should undergo regular supervision with a person qualified in counselling supervision. This is essential to ensure that clients get the best help they can. I undergo regular supervision in counselling so I am able to support my clients true to my ability.
