What if life could be different and you were no longer stuck in unhelpful patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving? What if issues such as trauma, abuse, neglect, depression, anxiety and stress no longer hindered your growth and healing? What if you could acknowledge the pain of past experiences and find ways of letting them go? What kind of life would you choose to live instead? Could you dare to dream of a different way of being and reach for what currently feels impossible? By seeking help at this time, you have an awareness that there is more to life and you are no longer settling for what it has been up until now.

My goal for you is that within the safety of the therapeutic relationship, you experience the acceptance and empathy needed for the development of greater authenticity whereby you can truly say you are the captain of your soul.

I am an experienced person-centred trained and registered counsellor currently working in private practice. I have 16 years experience, including working in a diverse range of charities addressing a wide range of issues and concerns. Settings have included forensic counselling, issues of faith counselling, and pregnancy loss counselling.

I specialise in assisting clients connect with their true selves. I am very interested in the psycho-spiritual and transpersonal elements of this transformation work. Additional training includes Narcissistic abuse therapy, Complex trauma therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, Racial identities, and Gender, Sexual and Relationship Diversity (GSRD) therapy.

I regularly review the work we are doing to ensure it is meeting your needs, knowing that these evolve over time.

The initial session is about creating a space of safety and trust in which you can begin to share your story and what it is you would like from therapy. 

There is an assessment involving some exploratory questions. We consider any previous therapy and the benefits gained, as well as what you may want to do differently.

At this stage, you may simply need to talk and share. Equally, you may have goals in mind that we can make note of.

My practice hours are:

Monday 12 - 9pm

Tuesday 12 - 9pm

Wednesday 12 - 9pm

As a qualified Clinical Supervisor my approach is based on the comprehensive Seven-Eyed model of supervision developed by Peter Hawkins and Robin Shohet. I offer supervision to individual counsellors, including those in training. Supervision is a place of trust and transparency, where we collaborate for the benefit of your clients, and explore whatever is relevant for you in your development as a counsellor.

You are welcome to email me to arrange a free short telephone call. Sessions last up to 1 hour via Zoom or telephone only. Fee: £60. Trainees £50

I am very interested in creating space to explore areas we are less likely to share, such as perceived failings, limitations or inadequacy. The greater the trust and transparency, the greater the growth and development that occurs.

Also, we consider the BACP Ethical Framework as a living document that informs our work together.

The initial supervision session involves exploring your previous experiences of supervision and what you are hoping for in our work together. We look at contracting, boundaries and expectations.

You will have the opportunity to share what is currently uppermost in your client-work so that you can see how we work together.
