Profile

I am a qualified, professional and experienced therapist in private practice in Totnes and Torbay, offering counselling, psychotherapy and supervision. I offer a confidential and personally tailored service, integrating a variety of approaches including Sand Play Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Solution-Focused Therapy, Transpersonal Psychology, Creative Visualisation, CBT, [Cognitive Behavioural Therapy], and the Emotional Freedom Technique.

I am a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and am bound by its code of ethics and practice, regularly receiving supervision from a qualified and experienced supervisor. I also access continuing professional and personal development as part of my commitment to providing an excellent service to my clients.

Training, Qualifications & Experience

I trained at the prestigious Iron Mill Institute in Exeter, gaining an advanced diploma in counselling in January 2002. More recently I trained in supervision, qualifying as a counselling supervisor in 2007.

I have been counselling since 2001, both in private practice, with all age groups, including being part of a pioneering scheme to offer emotional support to carers in Torbay; and also part-time, helping to co-ordinate a team of counsellors in a local young people's support service.
More recently I have begun offering supervision to counsellors, both in private practice and for Check Point in Torquay.

Further Information

I believe that everyone has the resources to explore and resolve their own particular issues, given a sufficiently supportive, compassionate and empathic environment. They can thereby regain inner strength and direction, to develop a healthier life at all levels: physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual.
