Counselling
We are all individuals living in a society that has its share of social ailments including loneliness, disconnection, fear and longing.
Statistics indicate that more than half of us will experience symptoms of depression or other mental unwellness during our lifetime.
Counselling can often help with family and relationship problems as well as stress, anxiety and depression. If you are experiencing major or sudden life changes
such as bereavement, ill health or difficulties with work, counselling can provide much needed support and stability.
We are the authors of our own lives and have the choice to react in any way we choose, to any situation, although sometimes it doesn’t feel like it. Counselling can help us take responsibility for our lives and find a new way forward.

Equine Assisted
Therapy
Equine Assisted Activities and Therapies, or EAAT, is an umbrella term for a wide range of services available to adults and children. The one thing all these interventions have in common is the horse!
I believe that being with horses offers us a chance to find a new language of connection, to ourselves, to each other and to nature. Given a safe, quiet environment horses can teach us about self-awareness and relationships.
Equine Assisted Therapy can offer true experiential learning which can help us to change the way we think, feel and behave. more.....

Green
Care
The effectiveness of Green Care, or Ecotherapy as it is also called, has been the subject of several recent reports commissioned by the government as well as the mental health charity, MIND.
This approach works on the premise that active contact with nature can help to restore human health. This might involve working with wildlife through nature conservation projects or simply being in a garden or woodland environment.

Autism and Learning Difficulties
Over the past ten years I have spent a lot of time working with young people on the autistic spectrum or with learning difficulties. My experience has shown me that the therapeutic interventions and approaches I use can be equally successful with different groups of people.

Aquatic Therapy
I believe in the therapeutic effects of being in warm water in a pleasant environment. Water provides sensory stimulation that can have a soothing and calming effect, helping to relax both mind and body as well as improving the quality of sleep. Activities in the water can be enjoyable and enabling, helping motivation and providing opportunities for social interaction.
