Email meAbout me
If you are looking for help with issues that you feel stuck with, or if you are struggling to move on from events in your past, I provide professional counselling and psychotherapy that could be your answer. As an experienced and accredited counsellor, I can help you to explore your feelings in a safe place and enable you to gain new insight, strength and direction for your life.
I offer a free 30 minute initial session for you to share your concerns and to explore if us working together is right for you.
One-to-one counselling (short term and long term) covering many areas and also couples counselling is available. I also offer counselling supervision.
My therapy practice is based two minutes away from Liverpool South Parkway station and is easily accessible by bus routes and by car, with ample free parking on the surrounding streets. Disabled facilities are available.
I am accredited with the BACP and have a wide range of counselling experience. I have worked in a variety of settings, including managing a counselling agency and working as an independent practitioner for a number of years.
