About me

It takes courage to contemplate working with a counsellor, and to seek help for your problems. In taking this step, you have taken the first step towards healing and positive change.

I work in a person-centred way to give my clients a non-judgemental, confidential and accepting experience. My online counselling sessions can provide a similar safe space to meeting in person where you can explore your feelings and issues, so long as you have a private place to be in.

I am a qualified person-centred counsellor who uses techniques from mindfulness and solution focussed therapy to enable me to work in the most suitable way to offer the best help for my clients . I offer a warm, accepting, and respectful space for you to explore any difficult issues and feelings that have brought you to seek therapy. I work in a collaborative way, alongside my clients, to them decide what goals, if any, are appropriate for counselling, and help my clients find ways to achieve them.
There are times in life when things can be painful, bewildering and distressing, and I will be with you as you explore these difficulties and aid you in exploring these feelings to find a better understanding and acceptance.

Myfanwy has been a great support over the last few years, I am very grateful and am always looking forward to our sessions. She is a very skilled listener but also gives sound advice if and when needed.

Myfanwy is ax excellent therapist. She listens with care and responds with intellect. She has helped me to explore issues with a pace that suits me making me feel safe to express myself openly. I always feel better after my session with Myfanwy. Thank you.

I’m always confident that when I’ve discussed my concerns with Myfanwy I will know what direction I will need to take in order to address my issues. She makes me think and questions what I believe about myself and that my self perception isn’t always correct; which is a good thing! I feel that I’m moving forward with my life and tackling the challenges I face better than prior to seeing her.

Myfanwy is always on time for our video calls, has good availability and is very professional.
She is helping me work through the grief of my husbands death. She never forces me to talk about anything specific and is a good listener and engages so that i end up exploring my emotions in ways i hadn't thought of. She has encouraged me to be more positive and see how i am moving forward

Myfanwy really gets me and understands my dilemmas - I feel exhausted after the sessions but being able to download is a huge relief
