Profile

I am a MBACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) Accredited counsellor and experienced supervisor practicing in the Retford, Gainsborough, South Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and North Nottinghamshire areas with over 9 years counselling experience. I offer brief and long term counselling to individuals and couples within the age groups of eight to adult of all ages.

I trained as an intergretive counsellor, gaining knowldege and understanding of more than one theoretical approach with a main focus on CBT. I believe no two clients have the same presenting problems and issues, as such no one theory base is appropriate for all them. I tailor the process to meet the specific needs of my clients ensuring I provide a service which is unique to the clients requirements. Through exploration I aim to help my clients recognise and accept their presenting problems and issues with a view to changing their lives to one which is healthy and acceptable for them.

As an experienced counselling supervisor I offer supervision to qualified and student counsellors, both individual or group supervision, who may work independently or employed by a service provider. I provide supervision for school counselling services, volunteer agency counsellors, emergency services, student counsellors and individuals.

At all times I work within the BACP Code of Ethics.
