Margaret Spencer MA BSc MBACP (Senior Accre'd) UKRCP

Profile

My career as a Social Worker spans over thirty five years and has given me many life experiences.

The garden room used for counselling clients is new and very comfortable: clients are made most welcome in a warm and secure environment offering peace and support. Flexible appointment times days / evenings or weekends are available.

There is excellent off the road parking on the drive: the garden and driveway areas are very well lit.

First sesssion is free of charge.
