Profile

I am a fully qualified psychotherapist and counsellor with more than 10 years post qualifying experience. I work with people from many different backgrounds and am experienced at working with a wide range of issues both in private practice and within the health service.

I offer long and short term individual counselling and psychotherapy in a safe confidential environment.

My approach is integrative, which means that my therapeutic "toolkit" and skills base is taken from a number of different theories of counselling and psychotherapy. The main one being Psychosynthesis which includes, Psychodynamic , Humanistic, Gestalt, Jungian and Transpersonal theories.

My style is open, warm and supportive. I respect difference and therefore my approach and way of working will be tailored to respond to your individual needs.

In keeping with my training I believe that we all have within us the power and potential to overcome the inner and outer obstacles that life presents us with.

As well as talking it is sometimes helpful to work creatively through other mediums such as dreams, writing, imagery and drawing.

I originate from a background in nursing and it was as a nurse many years ago that I first discovered that talking and sharing had a significant impact on a persons well being and ability to cope with stressful situations. 

My main counselling and psychotherapy training was at the Institute of Pschosynthesis in North London where I studied first as a therapeutic counsellor and then as a a psychotherapist. During this time I also worked as a volunteer counsellor at a centre for women.

As well as private practice I have worked in a hospital setting and in hospices with adults and children suffering from life threatening and life limiting illnesses.

Further Information

I offer you a safe and confidential space where together we will be able to explore the difficulties that are concerning you.

The initial assessment or first session will be for 60minutes all further sessions are 50 minutes.

The first session is a time for us to meet each other and for us to explore the potential for working together. Choosing the right counsellor or therapist is an important decision and so this is a time for you to ask the questions that will help you with your decision to embark upon the work with me.

We will then agree how we will work together and possible ways forward. We will also agree fees, number of sessions, frequency and cancellations.

Depending on your needs and expectations we will have agreed to a set number of sessions and the dates and time before reviewing or ending.

If our work together is long term then we will have regular reviews together.
