Profile

CBT is the buzz word with doctors and the NHS at the moment and this form of therapy is teaching you the tools to manage your situation. Working on the way you think, feel and behave can help you to understand your situation.

Counselling will help you to help yourself with your situation. My work within the counselling field is helping the client to get the best possible help so that they can look forward and release the back pack they have. The problems may be deep seated and therefore we can explore childhood situations.

Many couples come and discuss their problems in a safe environment where they are not judged but helped to talk about their behaviours.

As a qualified teacher, I teach counselling from intorductory to Degree level to a variety of students and I also enjoy training trainee counsellors within placements. I have my own practice and work with a wide range of situations. I enjoy the diversity of counselling and not knowing what the next situation is going to be.

Further Information

Counselling is where you can talk in confidence and it enables you to leave the room with perhaps a different perspective on your situation. It is sometimes easier to talk to a face you dont know than family and friends.

It takes courage to open up and talk to another person especially when you have held secrets for so long. If you have been abused may be you weren't heard when you were small and your relationships keep breaking down. There is a reason behind all our behaviour.

My work training students to be therapists is indepth now. . I also practice CBT in my prison work and school work. My private practice gets many people wanting to change their behaviour or to explore situations in their life..

As an accredited counsellor I am offering an ethically controlled environment and I am very interested in the proper training for all counsellors and clients being able to get the right help, which is ethical and safe and in a non judgemental environment
