I work Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday with both daytime and evening appointments available.

Are you feeling anxious or stressed? Are you struggling with a relationship? Life can be difficult, and our emotions can sometimes feel too much for us to cope with on our own. Counselling can help by offering you a confidential and non-judgmental space to talk about your thoughts and how you are feeling. I believe that no-one knows you better than you know yourself and that you have the answers; together we can find those answers. 

Before retraining to become a counsellor, I had a widely varied work life which has given me a great depth of knowledge and experience. I understand it can be difficult to talk to a stranger about how you mare feeling and that's why the relationship between a client and counsellor is so important. Take the time to find the right counsellor for you. 

As an integrative counsellor I do not have a set way of working. Everyone is unique and will require something different. I listen to you and what you need, and work in a flexible way that will help empower you. 

I offer a variety of ways to experience counselling so you can choose what is best for you. These include: face to face in my therapy room, online via Zoom or on the telephone. 

I offer a free initial telephone call which lasts for about twenty minutes to give you the opportunity to ask any questions you may have and help you decide if I am the right counsellor for you. 

I work Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday with both daytime and evening appointments available.

I am qualified Counselling Supervisor offering in-person and online supervision to individuals.

I work using the Seven-Eyed model which provides an holistic approach to support you in your client work. 

Within my own practice I work with young people and adults enabling me to support your Counselling work in these areas. I am also trained to supervise other professionals in caring and helping roles. I like to work relationally and I am trained in an integrative approach. I work collaboratively to help support you and your clients. 

I offer several concession slots for counsellors in training. I offer both 1 & 1.5 hours sessions for supervision. Please feel free to contact me to discuss your supervision requirements.
