Profile

As a experienced counsellor and psychotherapist I believe that you are the expert in your own experience and I am here to support you on your journey by listening, empathising and accepting what is going on for you.

I undertake long and short-term face-to-face work and aim help you to deal with anything that causes distress or difficulty.

I have experience of working with a wide range of difficulties including anger management, post traumatic stress disorder (ptsd), bereavement, depression, anxiety and mental health diagnosis in a variety of different settings.

I consider myself to be a sincere, warm individual, sensitive to the needs of any given situation or individual.

I have completed advanced training with The Sherwood Psychotherapy Training Institute, in an MA in Humanistic Person centred Psychotherapy.  I am currently training as a supervisor and am therefore also able to offer clinical supervision at a reduced rate whist training.
