Are you struggling with your feelings? Are you becoming noticeably more anxious or low? You don't need to be alone with these feelings.

I can provide a FaceTime, Skype, Zoom or WhatsApp video session. I have made my practice as Covid19 safe as possible if you’d prefer a face to face session in my practice. I’m also offering ‘walk and talk’ sessions on Ashdown Forest, weather permitting.
If you would like to have an initial 30 minute free chat on the phone beforehand, don't hesitate to call me on 07876886009

I have worked with panic attacks, anxiety and depression as a counsellor for over 18 years and also had personal experience of witnessing close family members suffer from panic attacks and prolonged anxiety.

I specialise in helping those suffering from anxiety and panic attacks. My treatment method provides both a short and long-term solution. It helps to address all aspects of Panic Attacks, whether it be physical, emotional or chemical.

If you are unsure that you are suffering from anxiety or panic attacks, you call call me to discuss on 07876886009.

In my private practice, the majority of clients are referred by medical practitioners and GPs. I have worked at a clinic in London and for the charity CRUSE for seven years.

I have previously featured in ELLE magazine and the Guardian newspaper and The Metro Newspaper (London). 

When choosing a counsellor it's more important that you find someone you feel totally comfortable with, rather than the particular theories that they use.

I use many different counselling theories. This enables me to work flexibly and creatively to meet the individual needs of my clients as I don't believe that a 'one size fits all'. This can all be discussed in our first session which is free of charge for individuals.

In my private practice on Ashdown Forest, I work with both individuals, couples and older children from 11 to 18 years. I work closely with GP's at a local surgery who regularly refer clients to me. Working as a couples counsellor and also with teenagers are areas of counselling that I'm particularly passionate about.

I offer a caring, empathic and non-judgemental environment in which we can discuss any issue you may wish to bring. Together we can look at the choices available to you.
The counselling models that I work with include; Person Centred, Gestalt, Psychodynamic, Transactional Analysis and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).
 
I have worked as a couple counsellor for over 10 years. I also enjoy working with troubled young people and have provided counselling for local schools.
