Profile

Choosing the right Counsellor is very important and can be difficult especially when you are experiencing testing times. Consider what it's like when you are having a difficult time and think it might help to talk to someone. Friends aren't always the answer, so perhaps counselling would help. I entered into counselling believing that sometimes individuals need some guidence or self acceptance in order to feel better within themsleves. I work privately from home and am also employed by Relate. I have also been trained by Breakeven who specialise in people with gambling addictions. I also currently work for North Kesteven Council and Boston County Council working in several childrens centres working with families, children and adults covering a variety of issues. 



I am an intergrated counsellor using person centred, CBT and systemic in my work and offer a caring, safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment in which for you to look at your concerns or issues. Person centred counselling is very gentle with the belief that each individual has within them the capacity to change as they already hold their own answers. CBT is more directive and looks at improving your state of mind now rather than the cause of your distress in the past. Systemic is normally used for counselling couples or any realtionship issue within a family, ie mother/daughter, gay couples, friends.

I am committed to developing my personal growth and professional development in order to always provide the best service I can to my clients. I have various workshops booked for the near future, this is to ensure I am always up to date with the lastest news and developments.

I am a mother of 2 children aged 14 and 19. In order to relax I walk our 2 dogs and go to the gym.
