Profile
I am an Accredited Counsellor with over 10 years experience; I offer a wide range of counselling support working with depression, anxiety, stress, relationship issues, low self-esteem, alcohol misuse and trauma.
I have worked throughout the county as a counsellor for a Worcestershire public service and I also have my own private practice.
My therapeutic approach is Integrative, combining Psychodynamic Theory with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, including Mindfulness. My work is tailored to meet the needs of the individual and usually involves us exploring the problem, what it is and where it came from and moves into solutions; ways to manage overwhelming feelings and thoughts and to start to feel better.
Training, Qualifications & Experience
I have a Post-Graduate Diploma Integrative Counselling from University of Birmingham and I am a BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy) Accredited Counsellor and UKRCP registered.
I have a B.SC (Hons) Psychology.
Post qualification I have undertaken further training in:
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Solution Focused Therapy
Attachment Theory
Guided Imagery
Neuro-Linguistic Programming
Mental Illness
Sexual Abuse and Rape
Domestic Violence
I have particular interests in working with distress, trauma, personality disorder and sexual abuse and domestic violence.
My specialism is in Alcohol Issues having worked for Worcestershire Alcohol Team for many years; many people do not want to approach a public service wanting to ensure anonymity and confidentiality and therefore turn to private counselling as an alternative. I understand the stigma and shame that people experience when their drinking has become problematic and like to offer advice and information about alcohol misuse and counselling for the emotional support that has predated the drinking and the distress that drinking creates.
I also offer support and advice for people who are effected by someone else's drinking and are worried and distressed for a loved one.
