Profile

I'm a qualified counsellor and member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP) and am bound by their code of practice.

I have been training in a range of approaches, humanistic, psychodynamic and systemic approach this allows me to work with clients in a way that is tailored to their needs.

My aim is to provide a safe, non-judgmental, supportive environment for you, your partner or your family to explore the issues that are troubling you.

I started my training with Relate in 2001 to become a Couple Counsellor.  I also trained to be a Young People's counsellor. It was through my experiences with working with adults and children that I became interested in working with families.  I did further training with Relate to become a Family counsellor and I provide counselling for couples, individual, families, young people and children.

I am CRB checked and work within the BACP Ethical Framework for Good Practice. I am in regular supervision and maintain client confidentiality in accordance with the BACP's code of ethics.
