About me
I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). My training involved four years of academic and clinical study and was also BACP accredited. I am also a certified professional coach.
I have therapeutically supported clients with a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, panic attacks, and family issues. I am also experienced at working with clients who use the 12 step recovery programmes for addictions to alcohol, drugs, gambling, food, eating disorders, and other related issues.
As an integrative therapist, I use different techniques from a range of therapeutic models to suit each client and their individual circumstances. This model allows me to respond to you in a way that will best fit your needs and empower you to process even the most challenging emotions. Listening to your questions and beliefs about counselling at the outset is crucial as it will enable us to form a trusting relationship which forms the basis for positive therapeutic work.
I am an experienced bereavement counsellor and worked for a number of years supporting bereaved family members, of all ages, in a hospice setting. I also have extensive experience supporting children as I worked as a counsellor in a primary school.
As a professional coach, I am able to support you with challenges that may arise at work and help you to identify what you may want to achieve or change in your professional life.
