How I Work
Counselling often has a gentle rhythm, with sessions taking place as frequently as you need. This offers a steady space where things can unfold over time, though we can always find an approach that feels right for you.
We can meet in person in Carmarthen, or online — whichever feels more comfortable and accessible. Some people value coming to a quiet, dedicated space; others prefer the familiarity of their own surroundings. What matters most is that you feel able to speak freely, in a place that feels private and undisturbed.
Each session lasts 50 minutes, giving you time to slow down and say things in your own way, without pressure to rush or reach conclusions.
I work with adults, and also with young people from age 14 upwards. Many have found recent years particularly challenging, and it can help to have a space where those experiences can be gently explored and understood.
I also offer counselling for those navigating relationship difficulties, whether individually or as a couple. When working with couples, sessions are a little longer, allowing enough time for each person to be heard.
My approach is grounded in listening and shaped around you. There is no single way of working that suits everyone, so we find what feels most helpful together. You remain at the centre of the process, and we move at a pace that feels manageable.
At the heart of this work is the therapeutic relationship — a sense of trust and ease that develops over time. It isn’t something that is rushed, but something that grows as we work together. From that place, it can become easier to understand what’s happening for you, and to find a way forward that feels more settled.
