Profile
I am a BACP accredited Counsellor/therapist working as a therapist for 17 years. My approach is integrative, therefore I look at the patient/client and assess which is the best way to work with this individual
.
I am committed to supporting others through times of pain and transition. I feel passionate about my work and believe each person is capable of achieving their full potential.
