Profile
Through my personal journey in counselling, I have developed into a perceptive and empathic person-centred counsellor. My own life experiences have taught me to be non-judgmental and to celebrate the uniqueness of every client I have had the
privilege of working with.
The tools I have picked up working with people experiencing a vast spectrum of emotional and psychological difficulties caused by life experiences, enables me to offer my client’s the best conditions for therapeutic growth, supporting them to change
and develop at their own pace.
I have a private practice at the above address with my female partner, where I offer one-to-one counselling and group or one-to-one supervision. This is in a quiet location with plenty of free on-street parking.
Training, Qualifications & Experience
I have a diploma in person-centred counselling and I regularly attend ongoing professional development workshops. I completed a CRUSE-based bereavement counselling course and an introduction to art therapy training.
I have recently completed a counselling supervision training at the Metanoia Institute.
I am a member of the BACP and adhere to their ethical framework for good practice.
I have many years of experience in 12-step programs (Minnesota model); currently facilitate group work with addicts / alcoholics for a national charity, and I have recently completed group work with teenage males in a school setting. I was a prison
counsellor working with male inmates; I have worked with CRUSE as a bereavement
counsellor and I am currently counselling teenagers at a youth counselling agency.
