I specialise in helping those who are having suicidal thoughts, contemplating suicide or have been bereaved by suicide.
However you do not need to be in crisis to seek counselling, you may have a difficult decision to make or are feeling generally anxious and panicky and don't know why. I can provide a safe space for you to explore what is happening in your life at this time.

Oh! and I enjoy paddling in the sea !
