Profile

I am BACP Accredited and a UKRCP Registered Independent Counsellor working in Crossroads Counselling, a professional confidential independent practice based in Farnborough, Hampshire. I offer counselling for adults and young people and couples.

My formal study to become a counsellor began several years ago after a positive experience of personal counselling during a difficult life event. As an Accredited member of the BACP I work within BACP’s ethical framework, am insured and I have Enhanced CRB (Criminal Records Bureau) clearance.

Training, Qualifications & Experience

I have a BA (Hons) degree in Counselling and I have experience of counselling in the NHS (in Drug and Alcohol Services), Detox / Rehab, schools (local and in London area with The Place2Be), local government and charitable organisations.

I am a qualified Supervisor with a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling Supervision and have experience in supervising both trainee and qualified counsellors.

I am an Accredited member of the BACP, and work within BACP’s ethical framework. I'm also a UKRCP Registered Independent Counsellor.

  • Fees

    Each 50 minute session costs £40.00 for individuals, and £50 for couples, payable on the day. Making the initial contact is probably one of the hardest things to do, you may feel nervous and unsure about what to expect. Making an enquiry and meeting for an initial assessment does not mean you are tied into something. The Initial half hour appointment is free & is used to assess whether counselling is the right form of support for you.
