Hi, I’m Deborah. In your sessions with me, you will be met with warmth and compassion and have space to explore whatever is going on for you at the moment. I believe that sometimes we all need a space to express ourselves fully and to be heard and supported without judgement. Perhaps you are coping with a challenging time or circumstances in your life, a significant change or transition, or are grappling with anxiety or low mood. Wherever you are right now, we will work together at your pace, focusing on the things that are most important to you.
I am an integrative counsellor in training, registered with the BACP and working towards a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling. This means that I draw on different therapeutic approaches to meet your needs and prioritise connection and emotional safety in the work we do together.
Outside of counselling, I work for a mental health charity running weekly groups to support emotional well-being. Prior to this, I worked in strategy and commissioning roles in the public sector for almost 20 years. I have particular experience in perinatal mental health and SEN/D (special educational needs and/or disabilities).
