Welcome
I am an individual and couples relationship counsellor offering face to face & zoom counselling, couples counselling and supervision in Farnham near Guildford, Camberley and Farnborough on the Surrey, Hampshire border. As a qualified clinical hypnotherapist, I am also able to offer hypnotherapy sessions.

Sometimes when we are feeling low or depressed we need to talk but feel that sharing personal thoughts with friends or family is inappropriate. Perhaps we do not feel 'heard' by our loved ones or maybe they haven't the time to listen. This is when speaking to a counsellor can help.
I have over 20 years' experience as an individual and relationship counsellor and am an experienced clinical hypnotherapist so am able to work with you on a deeper level than by using traditional therapy alone.
Counselling and/or hypnosis can help you break old habits and beliefs, improve your self esteem, reduce stress and establish more positive behaviour patterns leaving you feeling stronger and more confident.
Please contact me if you need support.
Whilst you’ve helped our relationship out in more ways than I could have imagined, you also gave me the confidence to give up my job. Something I don’t think I would have felt comfortable doing without you.
It has given me the BEST two years off with BOTH children and I will forever remember these two years as the best in my life and you for giving me the push to do it.
Thank you forever

Counselling and hypnotherapy sessions
In my work as a counsellor, I use hypnotherapy as an additional aid to support to adults, adolescents, children and couples. Whatever your age or situation I will bring compassion and empathy to our sessions, giving you a safe and confidential space to explore your feelings. For young people I use play therapy and sandplay to gently uncover hidden issues arising at home or at school.
Before we meet we will have an initial telephone consultation (free), then, at our first appointment we will set up a six-session contract which can be discussed further at session five and extended if necessary. We will decide together if you want to include hypnosis alongside traditional counselling.
Please contact me if you have any questions or would like to arrange an initial chat whether it be for individual counselling or hypnotherapy, or as a couple.

About me
I am a registered accredited member of the National Counselling Society (MNCPS Accred), a member of the National Register of Advanced Hypnotherapists (MNRAH) a Licentiate of ASK and abide by their ethical framework. I also hold a Diploma in Couples' Counselling and am a Counselling Supervisor.
All sessions are held in the strictest confidence in a relaxed and informal setting. As we progress though our work together I will periodically check in with you in order to make sure you feel comfortable and are getting what you need from counselling and if, at any point, you feel uncertain we will pause and re-assess in order to get back on track.

My approach as a counsellor
I believe that our behaviour patterns come from childhood. I am an integrative counsellor meaning that I blend different therapeutic theories together in order to best support you. These theories include transactional analysis, relationship, gestalt, psychodynamic, person centred, humanistic, holistic and NLP.
I also offer counselling supervision for both qualified counsellors and students.
Help and Advice
When relationships become challenging, it can be difficult to know where to turn for advice. That’s why I have put together a resource of information, which can be a good starting point during difficult times, and may also be useful alongside couples counselling.
Please contact me if you would like to explore how speaking to a relationship counsellor could benefit you and your partner.
Where to find me
My practice is located in Farnham within easy reach of Guildford, Camberley, Farnborough and the surrounding parts of Surrey and Hampshire.
If you need individual support, hypnotherapy or a relationship counsellor, please contact me.
