Counselling provides a safe and supportive space in which to explore the issues you are facing.

Life presents regular challenges, and sometimes it can be difficult to decide how to respond.

Talking about your situation can help you to cope with the emotions you are experiencing, so that you can begin to see the way forward. Change is never easy, and the presence of a compassionate and professional listener can make the process run more smoothly.

The first step is to arrange an initial meeting to discuss your needs which is half price (£20) and lasts up to 1 hour

This is an opportunity for you to meet me, to talk about the issues you are facing, and how you think counselling might help. In the initial meeting I will also have the opportunity to explain the counselling process, check how how you feel about this way of working and whether you wish to continue with counselling.

If after the initial meeting you feel that you would like to proceed with counselling then we can arrange a regular meeting time and date. I will send you an email confirming our agreement and providing directions to my counselling room in Plymouth or Kingsbridge

I work with adults and young people and have previously worked at Kingsbridge Community College (KCC) as a Voluntary Counsellor for students/staff and at a South West LGBT charity.

Tranquility offers a safe haven for all and welcomes diversity.
