I’m an experienced and qualified Person-Centred Counsellor / Psychotherapist.

As your counsellor, I work with you, alongside you in a gentle and empathic way, honouring who you are, your struggles, your unique journey, listening to how it is for you and what that means for you. As we work together to explore what it is that may have brought you to counselling, I will safely accompany you, and work with you in a way that feels right for you, at your pace. Person Centred Counselling is a talking therapy where you can be listened to and heard with respect, care and authenticity.

I am also a fully qualified teacher and worked as a primary teacher for 21 years. I have a deep and vast understanding of complex family dynamics and experience of working with families.

I offer one to one individual counselling, working with adults, teenagers and children in my tranquil private practices, based in Shrewsbury, Tettenhall and Carlisle.

I am currently working in person in my private practice, offering face to face counselling, online and telephone counselling.

I also offer walking and talking therapy sessions.

As a Person Centred Counsellor I can also work with you creatively to promote psychological change and healing. It may feel more natural for you to communicate your inner struggles in a creative way. Using creative means of communication can often bring light to what cannot be seen on the inside. This may be through, Art Imagery Metaphor and symbols Writing, poetry, story, Music, Sand tray, and small world therapy, Play therapy

Working therapeutically this way, can be a particularly empowering experience for any age, to connect with the creative parts of self. Tapping into your creativity, connects you to your strengths from which you may find the resilience and courage to work through trauma, pain and loss.

I have particular experience of working creatively.
