Profile

I am a qualified and experienced Counsellor and offer you a service tailored to your needs and requirements. As a BACP Accredited Counsellor I am bound by its Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy and subject to the Professional Conduct Procedure for the time being in force.  I am also a UKRCP Registered Independent Counsellor and have Accredited Counsellor Membership of The National Counselling Society, having fulfilled the required criteria to be considered by the National Counselling Society to be safe, competent and ethical to practise Counselling.   

I have been counselling since 2002.  I work with male and female adult individuals (over the age of 18) on both a time limited and long term basis.  I use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Humanistic and Integrative, theories, approaches and techniques, within my Counselling Practice.

WORKING WITH YOU TO FIND A WAY FORWARD - Counselling takes place in a confidential setting and is an equal partnership where we work together to explore your thoughts, feelings, patterns and options. The aim of Counselling is to enable you to make sense of your situation, whilst working towards coming to terms with new experiences and facing them with less tension and anxiety. Counselling involves looking at yourself and your problem and ways in which you can feel more at ease within your situation to begin to make decisions about where you want to be, by looking at where you are now.

I love working as a Counsellor because I have a desire to make a difference in the life of others. I have had many occasions in Counselling Practice where I have seen "light bulbs go on" and witnessed my client telling me that their life has changed as a result of new insight. This is a joy for me to be a part of. Seeing another grow, through recognition that they can and realising that they can do this through their own abilities, is essentially why I work as a Counsellor.  When I embark on a Counselling relationship all I ever ask of myself is that I give my best to you, using the best techniques and theory, I am aware of, to help and educate you. If you like give you the tools to work with. The rest is up to you, you work within the process and take what you need from it.

My Counselling Session Availability is Monday - Thursday from 6pm.  Weekend sessions are also available.

All Counselling sessions last for 50 - 60 minutes. The total number of sessions will depend on your needs. Some issues require only a few sessions, whilst others require more.

In line with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) requirements, I attend Counselling Supervision on a monthly basis, am committed to Continuing Professional Development (CPD) and have Professional Liability Insurance.

Training, Qualifications & Experience

Training & Experience

I started my Counsellor Training in 1998 and have been counselling since 2002, qualifying in 2003.  I began my own Private Practise in 2004.  My original Counsellor Training was in the Humanistic Approach. Once qualified I also developed an interest in working with the Cognitive Behavioural (CBT) approach to Counselling and feel the way I work as a Counsellor complements both theories and approaches.

-   Human Resource (HR) Departments for Private Organisations
-   Healthcare Organisations, (including those dealing with insurance claims, eg Road Traffic Accidents)
-   Occupational Health Providers
-   Criminal Justice Organisations

I have a special interest in working with Stress and Stress Management, Anxiety, Depression, Low Self Esteem, Low Self Confidence, Work Related Issues, Assertiveness Skills and Relationship Issues.
