Profile

As a BACP member, Integrative Counsellor, Life Coach and author I bring a wealth of experience and skill to the counselling arena.  Passionate about people and with a compassionate ‘bedside’ manner acquired in a former twenty year nursing career, I have a friendly and approachable working style.

No stranger to personal adversity, I have used my own difficult past as a springboard to study and write in order to help others. My story has been featured in the national press (Daily Mirror 2009, Bella 2009), radio and television (The Big
Questions BBC1 2010). Married to Paul for over fourteen years, and with three
children and a step daughter, I understand many of the complexities of family life.

I originally trained as a Life Coach in 2005 and as an Image Consultsant in 2006. I have worked with a wide variety of individuals, groups, businesses and charities. Following this I now have a Post Graduate Diploma in Relationship Therapy and gained valuable experience at Relate assisting couples and individuals with relationship, and or, personal issues. Currently I am complimenting my qualifications with an MA in Relationship Therapy at Hull University and the Relate Institute.

What is
Counselling and Coaching?

Both are ‘talking therapies’ which help clients bring about effective change or enhance
wellbeing.

Counselling…

…is an umbrella term covering various techniques and skills whilst working with difficult or painful issues. I am a fully trained and qualified integrative therapist which means I use systemic, psychodynamic and other proven theories in my work. My speciality is Relationship Therapy and am skilled in working with many other personal problems.

Personal Coaching…

…is solution focused, doesn’t dwell on the past and uses proven cognitive techniques and strategies to bring about change, usually more quickly than with counselling. I am a trained and skilled coach with a focus on bringing about positive change.

How does being an Image Consultant help?  

Our image is a tool we  can use to improve confidence and self esteem. We all have to wear clothes so why not wear those which help us feel positive about ourselves? Looking good and feeling great is nothing to do with money, it is everything to do with knowledge. I can help you learn which colours and styles flatter even the fullest or shortest of figures. If confidence is an issue for you, working on your image is simply a fun and easy way to look and feel fabulous.

Finally...

In essence I am an experienced counsellor,coach and image consultant with a passion for helping clients manage relationship and other personal issues. No stranger to personal adversity, I bring a wealth of understanding and support for those who need help to move forwards.

Already working at a Relate centre, I also have my own private rooms where clients can feel relaxed and able to work through any difficult and distressing circumstances.

Integrity, commitment and a smile are guarenteed for my clients. A professional who is fully qualified yet has a warm and caring nature, I am committed to support and guide you through personal problems.
