I'm a mature person- centred counsellor, genuine and warm approach who occasionally integrates different tools from other approaches only if appropriate. My work mostly is Online or phone across the UK with in-person sessions in Cornwall (Truro).
About me and my practice
I am passionate about my work always strive to form close working relationships. This is about you being heard and understood, no judgement or criticism. Being held in that safe space to explore, allow the better understand yourself and self awareness to grow.

This is with an open heart and strong mindset; the ethos behind CANDLE MOUSE COUNSELLING'.
