Profile
I am a fully qualified experienced counsellor and member of the British Association of Counselling Practitioners (BACP). Working with clients and couples at their pace I offer patience, understanding and transparency so that they can find the direction they need to choose in their situation.
Making the decision to seek counselling help can be a daunting and challenging time for anyone. By taking the first step for oneself this can prove to be a life changing thing to do.
Counselling offers a confidential counselling relationship and encourages a safe space which is non judgemental and respectful.
My approach to therapy is Person-Centred as I work with individuals and couples on many issues (listed below) in the Dumbarton and Helensburgh areas.
Having also worked in business management for some years previously, I have a deep understanding of manager/employee work issues and how circumstances and stress in the workplace can affect mental health.

If you are unable to attend an appointment it would be appreciated if you could contact me to re-schedule as soon as possible.
