Hi there, I'm Gwen

 

As a therapist, I use an integrative approach with my clients combining psychotherapy, CBT and other counselling approaches to ease the process and guide you towards making the decisions that you feel are right for you. I guide you to connecting your past experiences with todays’ concerns and support you on the journey to feeling confident in understanding, managing and talking about your emotions.

 

As a Life Coach, I go hard, and I go deep. Whilst I don't provide an overnight fix, we form a plan which i hold you accountable to and check your progress against.  You won't get 15,000 handouts from me followed by random philosophical quotes, but you will get thought provoking questions that challenge you to the core and help you realign focus on what needs to be done to achieve your goal.

I can give you advice as a life coach that you will not get in counselling, but as your life coach I cannot work on overcoming historical trauma and behaviours; in the way counselling can.  So, what do you need more?

 

Either way, with me, you can feel accepted and valued for who you are without fear of being judged.  With mutual trust and openness, you will know that you have not just been listened to, but also heard.  I currently provide integrated counselling and psychotherapy, life coaching, therapeutic art and mindfulness therapies.  I also work directly with foster carers and young people through placement transitions and attachment difficulties.
