Profile

Difficulties from the past, painful experiences in the present or fears about the future can all hinder our ability to feel part of and enjoy life and find satisfaction.

If life is difficult at the moment and you would like to talk things through with someone who won't judge you, make assumptions or offer opinions - someone who is prepared to come alongside you and help you find a way through and out of your difficulties, then counselling may be for you.

In counselling you will be supported in expressing your emotions in your own way and finding your own solutions to your problems. The process of sorting out and untangling feelings and worries can enable you to see things with more clarity and empower you to make changes.
Counselling can also help you come to terms with and accept what cannot be changed.

But you don't have to have extensive problems to have counselling. You may just want to explore where you are at in your life, increase your self awareness and engage in personal growth.

I am an integrative Counsellor, which means I draw on a number of different counselling theories/approaches. This makes it easier to be flexible and work in a way that suits the individual. Counselling is a collaborative process, which means working together to find the right track for you.

At the very centre of the service I offer is a therapeutic relationship, which is based on respect, trust, confidentiality, equality and honesty.

I offer both short term and open ended therapy.

If any of what you have read here about counselling has captured your attention, I would be delighted to meet with you for an initial no obligation explorative session, to find out if counselling is for you.

My practice is located at Durham House in Fleet which is within easy reach of Farnham, Farnborough, Aldershot, Hartley Wintney, Hook, Odiham and Yateley.

Training, Qualifications & Experience

I am a BACP accredited Counsellor and registered as an independent Counsellor with the UKRCP.

I hold an Advanced Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, Certificate in Counselling Studies and Certificate in Counselling Skills. All awarded by the Counselling and Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body (CPCAB).

I attend regular training events/workshops to enhance my practice and continually seek to further my knowledge and skills.

I have experience of working with both adults and young people (16-18 year olds).

In addition to my private practice in Fleet I currently work as a NHS Counsellor in one of the local surgeries in Hart and I also work for Connect Christian Counselling service in Camberley.

My background is in general nursing. I have been an RGN for 20+ years and I am currently registered with the Nursing and Midwifery Council.

Areas of counselling I deal with

Fees

I charge £35 per session Monday to Friday. £45 for sessions on Saturdays.

Concessions may be available in some circumstances. I am happy to negotiate.

Further Information

I offer sessions on a weekly basis.

Each session lasts for 50 min.

I often allow a bit longer for the initial session, which will give us a chance to get to know each other and give you a chance to decide if you feel comfortable with me.
