Profile

I trained as a person-centred counsellor, and see clients in my private practice; I also work in doctors surgeries, EAPs and local authorities. I have experience of working in schools and with clients of all ages with Aspergers Syndrome and their families.

During this time I have developed an integrated approach to counselling which is guided very much by the needs of you as the client. I believe the counselling relationship is a chance for us to work together on issues that affect your life and how you feel. I also believe I can offer you the opportunity to do this by offering my respect for you in an open, honest and empathic way.

I am an Accredited Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), which is my professional association. As an Accredited Member of BACP I am bound by its Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy and subject to its' Professional Conduct procedure. I am also a General Member of the British Psychological Society

As a practising counsellor and psychotherapist I have regular supervision and hold professional insurance. I am also actively involved in continuing professional development training.

Further Information

Counselling is a chance to explore issues you can't talk to anyone else about, no matter how close they may be.

We can work quietly at a pace that suits you. I will always respect your values and coping skills that have helped you in the past.

My practice is in Maidenhead which is near to Reading, Slough, Marlow, Bourne End, High Wycombe and Windsor. The first session is free, and is a chance for us to decide if counselling is what you want and whether we can work together. We can discuss what is troubling you, as well as the boundaries of confidentiality in counselling. If at the end you don't want to continue thats not a problem.

• Supervision available (view supervision profile)
• Online, email or telephone counselling available
