My Approach

The person-centred approach is based on the theory and philosophy of Dr Carl Rogers. It is a non-directive approach to being with another, which believes in the clients' potential and ability to make the right choices for themselves. I will not give you advice on how to live your life, because the answers are all in you.

Working in a person-centred way, I will offer you empathy, acceptance and warmth as you explore what has brought you to counselling or coaching. I am interested in your thoughts and feelings and I want to understand your world and how things are for you.

Working together we will explore your world and it is possible you will gain greater self-awareness, understand your emotions better and improve your relationship with yourself, which in turn can lead to greater self acceptance.
