ABOUT ME
Hi, I'm Erin a qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor who is passionate about helping individuals find more acceptance and sense of self.
Therapy can be incredibly healing and for some, life-changing. This can mean different things to different people. What I do offer all of my clients is a safe, warm, compassionate, confidential and non-judgemental space.
​
I believe that everyone has their own individual needs and I strive to work with each person to help them reach their goals.
I bring to my practice over 15 years of experience working in commercial businesses and working with young people. I have worked for several years for organisations and charities offering open-ended counselling, facilitated through NHS-referred and self-referred clients.
​
I am currently advancing my training with an accredited MSC in Integrative Psychotherapy (UKCP).
​
HOW I WORK
I understand that life can present various challenges and sometimes feel overwhelming. Whether you’re feeling stuck due to past or present experiences or noticing unhelpful patterns in your life, I am committed to providing a supportive and trusting environment where you can express yourself freely and explore the issues affecting you.
Recognising the importance of the therapeutic relationship, I offer a non-judgmental, caring, and compassionate space to help you navigate life's challenges.
​
I take an affirmative approach to exploring aspects of identity, including sexuality, gender, and relationship diversity. Whether you're grappling with anxiety, relationship difficulties, or simply feeling that something isn't quite right, I tailor my integrative approach to meet your unique needs.
While I work with a wide range of issues, I have a special interest in anxiety and have taken additional training in trauma and working with neurodivergence to better support your healing journey.
As an integrative therapist, my purpose is to provide a safe and supportive environment for your personal growth and healing journey. I view therapy as a collaborative partnership where we work together to navigate the challenges you face. This is a chance to explore what you may or may not know about yourself that could be holding you back and to identify what it is you want more of in your life, working with you towards achieving it. Exploring core beliefs, identifying healthier ways of relating, and allowing more choice in your life are central to my practice.
I offer both short-term (10+ sessions) and long-term therapy options, starting with a free 15-minute telephone consultation to determine if we are a good fit. In our sessions, I will listen attentively in an empathic, confidential space, providing support.
