About me

Welcome to my profile.

I'm an experienced  counsellor and supervisor, seeing clients at my Exeter city centre practice or on Skype or Facetime, My counselling approach can be very effective with a range of issues. Here are some of them.

  • Anxiety
  • Relationships
  • Depression
  • Feeling sad
  • Family issues
  • University student issues
  • Self confidence
  • Self esteem
  • Stress
  • Bullying
  • Separation and divorce
  • Relationship breakup
  • Bereavement
  • Grief and loss
  • Emotional abuse
  • Womens health and wellbeing

I see my clients in a private comfy room in central Exeter or online. We can explore your concerns and work towards  gaining  new understanding and perspectives, and explore ways to bring about positive change and balance to your life.

  • An experienced Counsellor ,a member of the BACP, on the BACP Register accredited by the Department of Health,and fully insured for my work.
  • A qualified and experienced Counselling Supervisor
  • An approved Counsellor for the Lifeworks organisation ( Employee Assistance Programme)

My professional background includes senior operational management roles in the recruitment sector. Prior to becoming a counsellor, I worked as a freelance learning and development consultant, coach and mentor, specialising in management development , workplace stress and bullying. I was also  a licensed trainer for the award winning Springboard Womens’ Development Programme . My voluntary roles included being  co- founder , and for 4 years Chair, of the Women in Management Network (part of the CMI)in Scotland.

I understand that choosing a Counsellor can be quite tricky.  You want to feel the person you’ve chosen is the right one for you and feel comfortable working with them, so to help you decide I offer the option of a half hour low cost informal consultation

I also offer online appointments via Skype or Facetime.

You can call me on 07740678218 or send an email; either way if I’m not immediately available I’ll get back to you within 24 hours.
