- We're hosting an upcoming coffee & networking event!
Hello, I’m Dinah. I qualified as an integrative counsellor 11 years ago, after my personal experience of therapy left me with a desire to help others in the way I had been helped. I know how challenging it can be to reach out and would love to offer you my support.
You may feel overwhelmed with anxiety, be experiencing low mood, or struggling with relationship issues. Perhaps you have suffered some sort of loss and need support to re-engage with life. Maybe you are stuck, repeating unhelpful behavioral patterns that hold you back and make change difficult.
When life is a struggle there is huge benefit in being able to speak freely and confidentially, without fear of judgement to someone who is warm, wants to understand and can help you to find your way through your difficulties. I can give you the time and space to talk about what is troubling you and together we can explore your feelings and find a way forward.
Since qualifying in 2014 I worked for the NHS, several low-cost counselling services and a specialist bereavement service before concentrating on my private practice.
Before training as a therapist, I was employed for many years in a corporate environment so have a good understanding of the pressures of work stress, burn out and difficulties in maintaining work/life balance.
My Integrative training means I can work using a number of approaches in a style tailored to work in a way which best suits you. I am particularly drawn to understanding how our background and early attachments and experiences shape us and continue to affect our behavior’s and relationships in the present day, sometimes on the edge of, or beyond our awareness. Identifying those which no longer serve us well can help us change and live more satisfying and fulfilled lives.
My special interests include relationship difficulties, loss, bereavement and infertility/pregnancy related issues. I am Cruse bereavement trained and a Registered Pregnancy and Infant Loss Specialist with The Foundation for Infant Loss.
Finding the right counsellor for you is the key to successful therapy. It’s really important that you feel safe and comfortable to talk about what is affecting you. I offer a free, no obligation phone call so you can decide if you would like to arrange to meet for an initial session, in person or on-line, I would be most happy to hear from you.
