Counselling in Falmouth

Are you looking for professional counselling in the Falmouth area?

I am an experienced Integrative Psychotherapist offering face-to face sessions at my Falmouth based practice, as well as online therapy for those who prefer to access counselling from their own home. I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP), and also a Professional Member of the Association for Counselling and Therapy Online (ACTO).

I offer a safe, supportive and confidential therapeutic space in which clients can explore and work through difficult issues and challenging life events, such as panic and anxiety, depression, bereavement & loss, drug and alcohol related issues, relationship difficulties and adapting to significant life transitions. I have a particular interest in working with men’s issues, growth and wellbeing practices, integrating transformative experience and working with vulnerability.

Our sessions will involve exploration of issues in a supportive way, through a person-centred talking therapy approach, and may involve a range of humanistic psychotherapy practices such as focusing (paying attention to bodily sensations), parts work (entering into dialogue with different aspects of the personality to reduce inner-conflict), and exploring exercises for calming and soothing. This blended approach helps us to deepen the exploration, responding to what works for you, which further supports positive growth and healing. We will reflect on and integrate new insights and changes as we go, undertaking occasional review sessions to assess progress, exploring what is or isn’t working for you in therapy and adjusting our approach as necessary.

Our first meeting is a full working session and will involve an exploration of what has brought you to counselling, assessing any hopes or goals for the therapy you may have, and whether you have any preferences for ways in which you would like to work with me. As an integrative psychotherapist, I am able to blend a range of approaches according to your needs. Research shows that acknowledging and responding to client preferences significantly improves therapeutic outcomes, and we will have opportunity to explore what is (or isn’t) working for you throughout our time of working together.

I am available to meet individual clients face-to-face at my private practice, a short distance from Falmouth town centre. Those with time or travel constraints, limited mobility, or those who simply prefer to access counselling from their own home, may prefer online therapy via an easy-to-use encrypted videoconferencing platform.
