About me

I offer you a safe, confidential space to be heard and understood in your search for meaning and value in your life. Empathy and encouragement in understanding yourself and others, in finding strengths and answers within yourself. It is important to me that whoever I work with feels accepted unconditionally and not judged. I have a naturally warm and compassionate nature. You can talk with me about anything that is worrying you. I try to help and support people in the most appropriate way for their circumstances.

I have the experience, training and qualifications to give you confidence in the counselling I offer. I have gained counselling diplomas in Person Centred Counselling and Couples Counselling and undertaken many further courses to expand my field of knowledge and keep up to date with current ideas and findings. To me personal experience is essential alongside professional training. My experience of over 20 years working and training in mental health, teaching and counselling, my own life experiences, work in self development and well being, has enabled me to form my own unique approach to helping people.

At present I am writing a trauma informed programme on childhood adverse experiences and how you can be the key to your children's and your own social and psychological well being.  I am also developing my private practice offering individual counselling to adults, young people and to couples, counselling via Skype or Zoom, telephone, and on line. I also offer group facilitation and talks.

My last position was as a couples counsellor for Relate in Salisbury  and had my own private practice.  Previously I worked full time for MIND in Hemel Hempstead as a Senior Project Worker running Education and Leisure Groups and Drop Ins for people with enduring mental health problems. I later became a Sessional Worker with MIND facilitating groups for Carers of people with mental Health problems and women experiencing mental health difficulties themselves. I also worked part time at a Youth Counselling Agency, counselling at the centre and in schools. During that time I delivered workshops on understanding mental health problems, mental and emotional well being and healthy relationships. I had a private practice in Hemel Hempstead. Previously I counselled at a women's counselling agency in Hillingdon and at Druglink, a drug and alcohol abuse centre in Hemel Hempstead.

Prior to this I have worked in a men's prison as a teacher of prisoners who had been diagnosed as dyslexic, a Dysphasia support organiser with the Stroke Association, a teacher in a Rudolph Steiner School teaching young people thought to be dyslexic as. I set up and ran a self help group for parents of these young people. I ran a day centre for people suffering from dementia and facilitated a self help group for the carers.

All in all I have been either counselling or helping people who have mental health issues or other difficulties in their lives for more than 30 years. 
I am also qualified in Reiki healing and teaching and have again been working in this for 20 years.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).

Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).

Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.

Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.

All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
