About me and my therapy practice
I am a fully qualified, friendly, professional and highly experienced counsellor and therapist based in Adur and Worthing.
I am a person-centred counsellor, which means my main focus is on building a strong, trusting relationship with you so that we can explore whatever is on your mind on your terms and in your own time. I am here to listen to you, and to provide a space for you to feel heard and genuinely supported, and together we can work to find a way forward for you. I am also a qualified cognitive behavioural therapist (CBT) and can support you in exploring the links between your thoughts, feelings and behaviours to help find a healthier balance and perspective in your life.
If you are struggling with a difficulty, mental health concern, relationship difficulties, or a life change, then counselling can help you to better understand what is going on and to have somewhere to fully express yourself. My interest is in providing you with a supportive and confidential space in which to do so. Counselling with me can help you with a range of issues such as anxiety, depression, panic attacks, feeling down, making a decision, relationships, loneliness, anger or anything else that may be worrying you. I am also trained and qualified in solution-focussed therapy, where we work for a shorter period of time in a very focussed way to help you to find solutions.
I am an experienced and trained mindfulness practitioner which can also help you to find a quiet time in your day for reflection and relaxation.

I have a range of days and times for online and in-person supervision, please contact me for details.
About me and my therapy practice
I am an experienced, fully qualified (CPCAB Level 6) and extremely highly regarded therapeutic counselling supervisor.
My supervision approach is based on us developing a collaborative relationship of equals, enshrining respect, inclusivity, and humour whilst upholding the highest ethical standards in our work together.
I can offer you a safe, supportive and encouraging space to help you to check in with your wellbeing as a counsellor, and to explore your work with clients. This might include us exploring difficulties you are experiencing with clients, resonance and transference, ethical dilemmas, getting your qualifications, setting up and developing a private practice, your own wellbeing, and so forth.
I seek to develop a working agreement together that is built around your own goals, needs, learning styles and personality, where you feel safe and comfortable to share and feel heard as a counsellor.
Together we can work on supporting you, your counselling practice, and your clients.
I offer supervision in a range of modalities including person-centred, integrative, CBT and mindfulness practice.
Practice description
I am a highly experienced, successful and well-regarded counsellor with a range of qualifications and experience across a wide range of counselling modalities including integrative, person-centred, CBT, SFBT and mindfulness practice.
I have experience of supporting, developing, managing, and teaching counsellors in a range of settings including education, the charity sector and a very successful private practice. I also have significant experience of providing supervision, coaching and mentoring across a varied and enriching career in the third sector, local government and overseas.
I can offer you a supportive, collaborative, challenging clinical supervision space where you can explore yourself, your practice and your clients, feel supported in your personal and professional development, and access the support you might need to grow as a therapist.
I have experience of a range of ethical issues, setting up and growing private practice, working through personal difficulties with clients, and ensuring personal wellbeing. I always aim to bring this to my supervisory work whilst fully respecting and valuing your own experiences, perspectives, values and needs.
My first session
In our first supervision session we will explore our individual working styles, look at developing a contract and come up with a working agreement that will frame and underpin our supervision work together.
