I have been working as a Counsellor/Psychotherapist for 18 years, both in the NHS and private practice. I work with clients on a short or long term basis, and integrate a number of different approaches, based on each person's needs. I see individuals, couples, and families as well as offering a specialist child counselling service.
* Supervision and training available to counsellors and counselling students.
* I am an Associate Counsellor with a number of Employee Assistance Programme providers.
* In my specialist work with children, I offer the option of Animal Assisted Therapy with my dog, Tilly (as featured in 'Psychologies' Magazine, March 2008; Staffordshire Life, July 2008; and BACP'S Counselling Children and Young People, March 2010)
* Qualified Advanced EFT (tapping) practitioner
* I write a regular column for The British Journal of School Nursing entitled 'Counsellor's Casebook' and am a member of the Editorial Board.
