Profile

I am a senior accredited BACP Counsellor and Psychotherapist and a UKRC independent practitioner.   I qualified from Strathclyde University in 1998 and have since counselled clients with a wide range of issues, in short or long term counselling.  I also offer trauma intervention to individuals and groups.  I have been employed in GP practices and employee counselling organisations as well as maintaining a private counselling and supervision practice throughout.  I welcome the opportunity to work with clients towards finding resolution to problems or to learn to live more harmoniously with difficulties which can’t be easily resolved.
