Counsellor ProfileI am an experienced, BACP accredited and UKRC registered counsellor - (individual and couples counselling) with over 16 years experience in NHS (doctors' surgeries) and private practice. I offer accessible, interactive counselling and my approach is Integrative. This is a flexible approach which recognises that we - and our situations - are all different. It draws on a variety of approaches and helping strategies, depending on individual need and circumstances. If you would like more information about this and how I work, do have a look at my website.I am committed to helping you achieve as much as possible in the shortest reasonable time, at your own pace.
