Profile
I am a qualified, accredited therapist, trainer and supervisor (Metanoia trained) and have been working with clients for 18 years. I practice in the Richmond, Kingston, Surbiton, Teddington and Hampton areas.
I work with:

- Anxiety
- Anger Management
- Bereavement and loss
- Co-Dependency
- Depression
- Loneliness and isolation
- Low self esteem
- Relationship difficulties
- Eating Disorders
- Childhood difficulties
- Sex and sexuality

My approach to counselling is ‘Person Centred’ which means I aim to treat each individual with respect and acceptance. This kind of counselling places great emphasis on providing a safe, empathic, non-judgemental space for clients to discuss whatever is troubling them.
For specific issues I can also offer time limited Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). CBT is a type of therapy that aims to help you manage your problems by changing how you think and act. By talking about these things, CBT can help you to change how you think (‘cognitive’) and what you do (‘behaviour’), which can help you feel better about life.
I have 18 years of counselling experience and in that time I have worked for numerous organisations in the public and private sectors. These include Kingston Women’s Centre, Hounslow Youth Counselling, Cranstoun Drug Services and Twickenham Counselling Partnership as counsellor, trainer and counselling supervisor, as well as holding a private counselling practice.
I am also a qualifed supervisor and teach Person Centred Counselling at the City Lit and at the Metanoia Institute.
Please feel free to phone or email me with any questions you may have.

About Me
Some 24 years ago I found myself unsatisfied with life and realised that I had somehow lost my direction and passion. I began seeing a counsellor to explore some issues and to embark upon a journey of self discovery. As my values, feelings and frame of reference slowly changed I became more interested in therapeutic work and enrolled on a course to train in counselling.

Fees
How much does it cost?
At our first session, (free of charge) you will get an idea of how I work. After that, you can decide whether you want to return for further sessions.
Once we have decided to work together my fee is £50 per 50 minute session. If you are unwaged on on a low income I can offer a concessionary rate.
How long will it take?
It is entirely up to you to determine both the length and the content of our work together although I suggest regular reviews to ensure that you are getting what you need from it.
When do you have appointments?
I have some day time, some evening and some Saturday appointments.
