Why Choose Me

Hi, I'm Maxine a qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor, hypnotherapist and menopause wellness practitioner. Practical, non judgemental and with a sense of fun I create a safe and confidential space where you can identify and work through the challenges that you are facing, whether it be a specific crisis, or just feeling that something isn't right.

Through my years, I have faced good times and bad, and have developed an enduring passion for supporting emotional and mental health. I specialise in supporting teenagers and adults, having worked in the education sector and within adult social services, there's not much that I haven't seen!

As an integrative counsellor, I am able to offer a bespoke approach to your therapy, using a bespoke mixture of CBT, Person Centred and Psychodynamic approaches, as well as Hypnotherapy if appropriate and desired.
