About Me

My priority is to provide you with the support you need.

From there I can work to enable you to have the insight that will help you to manage things differently in future.

My experience includes the NHS, the charity sector, (Mind, Cruse Bereavement Care, Centre for those affected by cancer; Place2be – providing creativity and play therapy for primary school children), the corporate sector, as well as private practice.

I work with a large range of people from many different backgrounds, nationalities and cultures and with a wide variety of issues including:

Anger, Anxiety, Bereavement, Depression, Identity, Family, Low Mood, OCD, Obsessional Compulsive Disorder, Relationships, sexuality. I work with the whole person, so in the course of my Continuing Professional Development I have taken additional training in important areas related to mental, physical and emotional health and wellbeing:

What I Offer

Couple Counselling

Relationships can be challenging at the best of times. Couples or individuals seek help whether they or not they are engaged, married, living together or contemplating divorce or separation.

Online and Telephone Counselling and Psychotherapy

A number of years prior to the pandemic I took professional training to work with clients online or telephone.

Hypnotherapy

If there is one particular issue you would like to focus on, hypnotherapy can be very powerful and effective. As I am also a psychotherapist and counsellor I will work with you from the initial assessment....

Supervision

I practice according to professional ethics of the BACP including regular clinical supervision. Our work can give you the opportunity to explore and learn about your relationships, emotions, thoughts and behaviour.

Mindfulness & Counselling

There are two aspects to practising psychological "mindfulness." The first is to pay attention to each thought, feeling or sensation as it arises, without judgement and without trying to explain or understand.

What I Do

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing)
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Counselling-Supervision
Couple Counselling
I acknowledge and explore transpersonal experience - the mind 'beyond the brain'
I explore the relationship between the mind, body and physical health
Leadership and Management Coaching
Working with children and young people

Our work can give you the opportunity to explore and learn about your relationships, emotions, thoughts and behaviour. You will also have the chance to reflect on your issues and gain a different, impartial and supportive perspective.
