About me

I am a fully qualified person-centred Counsellor with over 20 years of experience,working as a therapist and mental health improvement officer.

I have worked with clients with a broad range of concerns including addiction, trauma, domestic abuse,depression and anxiety,and relationship issues.

I graduated as a person-centred Counsellor in 2005,and since then I have worked in unison with Social Care and Social Work departments,focusing on mental health improvement in the community with clients ranging in age from 18-100 years old.

My therapy style is open,warm and interactive.

I believe in treating people how I like to be treated,with respect and understanding,and I don't believe in putting people in boxes and sticking a label on it.

My approach combines cognitive - behavioral and person - centred therapy,your treatment plan will meet your unique and specific needs
I have a passion for listening and engaging with a person,supporting them to find their answers and their way forward through their challenges.

Every individual is different and experiences things in their own way,I love nothing more than accompanying the client through their journey and watching them grow and learn about themselves.

I f you are ready to take that step and face the challenges in your life,I am here ready and willing to support you.

I look forward to meeting you.

Angela is kind compassionate and empathetic. She takes the time to understand me and knows exactly how to respond to my needs. She is amazing and I would recommend her to anyone who needs therapy without hesitation.

Angela is a wonderful counselor/therapist who listens closely, empathizes, gives excellent encouragement and feedback, and fosters personal growth. She takes the time to read and respond to materials shared (like journaling) and has been attentive to see that my goals are being met through the sessions. She is very experienced and knowledgeable, and I've grown a lot since I've been with her for several months, seeing the positive transformation in myself. I highly recommend her as a deeply caring practitioner who will join you on your journey to a healthy and balanced life!

Angela has quickly worked out the best way to communicate effectively with me. She has helped me make great progress in only a few weeks together.

Written on Jul 16, 2023 after therapy with Angela for 1 month on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, sleeping disorders, self esteem, anger management, compassion fatigue, and adhd

Angela is the kind voice I have been hoping to find for many years. She allows me to open up in a gentle way at my own pace about topics and areas of my life that have been repressed and hurting my soul for decades. She gives my thoughtful exercises that work for me and allow me to continue to grow between our sessions. Her true skill is that I am never uncomfortable - and I am NOT comfortable talking to anyone about how I feel under normal circumstances. But with Angela, somehow it is natural. And healing. She has made my life better. She is a very special person.
