Hi, I’m Carrie !
I’m a fully qualified Counselling Practitioner, and am a Person-Centered Therapist.
I work with people experiencing emotional discomfort or distress, using Reflective practice in order to facilitate a better understanding of the causes of emotional disturbance, leading to a place where you are able to grow, for positive change in your life.
It can be very difficult for people to find a place of safety in order to be able to explore their experiences, and to be able to process them at a pace which is right for their individual personal needs.
As a Counsellor, I provide a safe, non-judgemental environment for clients to explore their experiences – both past, and in the here-and-now. As a Person-Centered Therapist, I work with a non-directive approach.
I work with a wide range of emotional disturbance with people from all walks of life and believe that the understanding of causes of our emotional discomfort can lead us to gain balance enabling us to grow for positive change
