Profile
I have over 12 years' experience of working as a professional in Mental Health and have worked privately as a Counsellor since 2006. I have also worked as a Secondary School Teacher with an additional pastoral role, and have many years' experience of training in life and communication skills within the commercial world. I have worked in the private health care sector, with clients suffering from eating disorders, both running groups and working with clients individually, and currently work for an Outpatient Eating Disorder Service in the NHS. Apart from running my private practice I have also worked voluntarily in Clapham with NHS clients who are suffering from drug and alcohol addiction.
It may be that you feel that you have reached 'breaking point', or maybe you feel 'stuck' in a difficult place and can't move on. Whatever your situation I provide a warm, non-judgemental environment for you to explore and untangle thoughts and feelings, and confront your fears, enabling you to experience a greater sense of emotional wellbeing, more self-awareness, and a more positive view of yourself. In brief, counselling can give you the 'tools' to live a happier and more fulfilling life.
I am trained in the psycho-dynamic approach, which pays attention to past experiences that may have a negative influence on the present, but I am also committed to working in the 'here and now' to tackle immediate distress. I believe that it is very important to be guided by the needs of each individual client.
I live in a quiet, residential road in Kingston-upon-Thames, where there is off-street and unrestricted roadside parking. Norbiton (mainline) station is a 10 minute walk away.
I am a BACP Accredited Counsellor and my work is bound by the BACP Code of Ethics. Contact me in complete confidence by calling the number above, or by e-mailing.
