I am a BACP Registered Accredited Counsellor and Psychotherapist with over 20 years experience and offer both short and long term counselling. My work is bound by the Ethical Framework and Practice of BACP. In addition to many years experience in private practice I have counselled in a GP practice as well as in various agencies one of which specialised in working with clients who had been bereaved and another with clients who had been abused in childhood or adulthood.

I have Diplomas in CBT, NLP and Life Coaching. In addition I am a BACP Senior Accredited Supervisor with 13 years experience of working with both experienced and trainee counsellors.

I offer a confidential space where you can be listened to by a trained therapist who is not involved in your everyday life.

I use an integrative approach in counselling clients based on your needs as an individual, and as such I use a range of different theoretical approaches including Person Centred, Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioural Theory, and Transactional Analysis.

I can offer both short and long term therapy.

All face to face counselling sessions last 60 minutes.

I work with individuals, couples and young people over the age of 14 

I also offer the opportunity to work in confidence with a Life Coach who is not directly involved in your everyday life in a reflective space where you are encouraged and supported in making changes to your life style and to explore where you want to go in and with your life.

During the Coranavirus situation I am offering telephone or on line Supervision,  and am available between 9.00am and 8.00pm Monday -Friday and on Saturday afternoons.

• I have a Certificate in. Supervision and have 13 years experience of working with Counsellors and trainee Counsellors. As an experienced Integrative Counsellor I am familiar with the Person Centred, Psychodynamic, CBT and TA theoretical approaches to Counselling. I am a BACP Senior Accredited Supervisor (Individuals) and as such follow the Ethical Framework of BACP.
• I regard Supervision as a collegial relationship between the Supervisor and the Counsellor where the Supervisor, contrary to the image of the 'work place Supervisor, is a mentor and guide rather than an 'overseer'. Through encouragement, support, affirmation and challenge together we monitor and evaluate the counselling process and if appropriate I may try to help you to find new ways of looking at yourself and your client to enable you to work more effectively with that client.
