About me
What I offer is to be your "ally" through life's challenges and changes - of which there are many. I will give you empathy, respect and honest feedback within a supportive professional relationship; together we will work through whatever issues you bring. My aim is that each person is able to be their real self and to lead a fulfilling life in connection with others - one that has meaning and purpose.
Concessionary telephone sessions available during the Corona crisis.

I have been a therapist for over 30 years and work with individuals, couples, groups and as a supervisor supporting other practitioners. I have diplomas in Counselling and Psychotherapy with the London Institute of Psychosynthesis and have done extensive further training. I am fully accredited with UKCP.
