Counsellor Profile
I am a BACP accredited counsellor with over seven years experience in private practice, employee assistance programmes, occupational health, mental health charities, GP practice and the Centre for Women’s Health.
From that I have gained considerable experience in a wide range of issues and specifically in working with people
experiencing work related stress.
I have had specific training with Babette Rothschild in somatic trauma (see www.trauma.cc ) and experience in the area of supporting people recovering from a traumatic event.
A large part of 1:1 work has also been job and life coaching; helping people to reflect on life purpose and direction.
I originally trained in person-centred counselling, and now use a wide range of approaches in my work.
I am interested in Focusing-Oriented Psychotherapy (www.dwelling.me.uk.) and Hakomi (www.hakomiinstitute.com )
