Welcome to CMCounselling
If you are considering counselling or psychotherapy, you may feel overwhelmed by the process of finding the right therapist. For this reason, I offer an introductory session, to help you decide whether I am someone you could trust and who you feel you could work with and to help me determine whether I can help you. This session, is free.
I am a psychodynamic counsellor, with previous careers as a Clinical Scientist (physicist) in NHS cancer services and as a community educator, working alongside people experiencing multiple disadvantage, trauma, addiction, or exclusion.
As a counsellor, I have worked with people in two counselling services in the Third Sector, one for people with mental health difficulties, such as anxiety and depression and one for people with physical ill-health, including their carers, families and friends.
In this, my third career, I believe I have found my vocation.
You can also find details of other therapists on various directories, such as BACP, UKCP, Psychology Today and Counselling Directory. NHS Inform also have a good article on what to look for in a therapist.
