I offer a warm, non-judgmental counselling service, helping you to face difficult circumstances, make decisions or changes to your life or explore yourself. This may involve looking at your past, providing you with the support you need right now or help with making plans for your future.

Whether coming to see me as an individual or as a couple, I can help you to;

– Understand how you are feeling
Identify areas that you might want to focus on
– Work through the issues that you are currently going through
– Discover what options you have and weigh these up
– Cope with change and/or make the changes you want to
– Feel better about yourself and your life

I work from home in Ballynure, a peaceful and tranquil location in the countryside, yet my practice is only 20 minutes from Belfast, Antrim, Ballymena and Carrickfergus; the journey all on main roads. This comfortable environment will provide you with some valuable time away and the space you might need at this time. My practice is just off a private lane, so guarantees privacy and has ample space for parking.

“Realise that you cannot help a soul unless that soul really wants help and is ready to be helped. I tell you to send that soul nothing but Love and more love. Be still and wait, but be there when that soul turns for help.” Eileen Caddy
