Counsellor Profile
I feel the most important factor in counselling is the relationship between the client and counsellor.I believe that everyone is special and I celebrate each persons uniquenes.
I'm a Humanistic counsellor, CRB, checked. I work within the BACP guidlines with regular supervision
I have with experience working with adults and adolescents at Tresham College and Mind. I also support students with learning difficulties and help with communication skills.
I see people from 14 upwards.
I have experience with a wide range of issues including PTSD, anxiety and depression and understand the stresses of running a small business for 20 years.
I have experience using relaxation and visualisation techniques. I view people as holistic and not a collection of symptoms
I'm situated in a quiet discreet location in a calm relaxing therapy room.
Easy access from the A14/A45 with ample free parking
