Serenity Counselling

My background is in nursing, district nursing and nurse management, which has given me much insight into work-related issues and problems the general public face. I have extensive experience in working in Schools, Health Centres and Employment Assistance Programmes.

I have undertaken extensive training in the fields of general counselling, bereavement, relationships, family therapy, couples counselling, psychotherapy, and cognitive behavioural therapy at Master's level, approved by National Council of Psychotherapy (see below).The purpose of undertaking extensive training is because I hold a firm belief that it is not a 'one size fits all' when clients enter counselling.

I work from an integrative perspective which means that I use tools from each modality to create a tailored treatment plan for each client as an individual. I can assure clients of a warm environment with a professional approach to assist them to work through the difficulties they present with. Entering counselling can provoke anxiety and I am very aware of the importance of creating a safe non-judgemental space to explore their difficulties and assist the client to find coping mechanisms.
