Profile
After much training, I can fully understand that individuals or couples may feel apprehensive or nervous about contacting or entering into counselling. My aim is to make your process as gentle and supported as possible by offering you a relaxed, warm, safe, therapeutic space in which to come and explore your difficulties with someone who cares and will actively listen.
Here, I feel I am committed to each and every one of my client's, ensuring that they receive a personal, confidential and professional service - this has been reflected in the feedback I receive.
I am a qualified counsellor and work within the ethical guidelines of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP) of which I am an accredited member
This means that I have reached a recognised higher level of competent practice which complies fully with BACP guidelines and ethics.
Talking, sharing and feeling supported can empower individuals to achieve a greater sense of awareness and wellbeing.
I am fully committed to the process for all adults, couples adolescents, young adults and children.
Training, Qualifications & Experience
My counselling qualifications are fully achieved from a basic level up to and including both Higher National Certificate and a Higher National Diploma. I am an Accredited Member of the BACP, a registred member of the UKRCP and also a member of the Northern Guild for Psychological Solutions.
I have also attended Psychotherapy training with the Northern
Guild for Psychological Solutions and have attended numerous workshops to enhance my client work. Topics include, bereavement and loss, depression, stress, eating disorders, low self esteem, abuse, anxiety, relationships and many more...
I am committed to ongoing training and research as part of Continuing Professional Development which includes Cognitive Behaviour Training workshops and my Certificate in Supervision. This enables me to assist other counsellors to grow, working both effectively and ethically.
Previous work includes several charitable organisations, NHS and Schools.
I currently run a busy private practice for Counselling in the North Tyneside Area where I see a blend of private clients, employees and GP referrals. Both trainee and qualifed counsellors are seen also for either personal work or Supervision.
