About me
’m an NCPS‑accredited Counsellor and Supervisor, working from my private practice in Mamhilad Wellbeing Hub, Pontypool. I support adults navigating anxiety, stress, depression, low confidence, relationship difficulties, grief, trauma, and those moments in life when everything feels overwhelming or uncertain.
I specialise in Emotional Therapeutic Counselling — a compassionate, person‑centred and trauma‑informed way of working that helps you connect with your emotions and gently release what may be holding you back. We work creatively and always at your pace.
My aim is to offer a space where you feel heard, understood, and safe enough to explore whatever you’re facing. Sessions can be face‑to‑face, online, or outdoors as walking therapy.
Because the relationship is central to good therapy, I offer a free 30‑minute consultation so you can meet me, ask questions, and get a sense of whether I’m the right fit for you. I also bring extensive experience in short‑term, focused counselling from my work within local council services.
Training, qualifications & experience
I hold an Advanced Diploma in Emotional Therapeutic Counselling and am a member of the Foundation for Emotional Therapeutic Counselling.
Accredited Member of the National Counselling Society.
I hold a Certificate in Education and a BA Hons in Education and Training.
My previous role within the public sector has given me extensive experience in dealing with all sorts of traumatic events. It is through this experience that I can help those who have suffered as a result of physical or mental trauma. I trained as an Emotional Therapeutic Counsellor because I strongly believe in the importance of emotional health. This holistic, integrative approach is a gentle path to finding the real you.
I am committed to continued professional development.
