About me
I am a Couple Counsellor, and have worked with couples and individuals for over 25 years. I am also a UKCP Registered Integrative Psychotherapist, a Psychosexual Therapist and a Clinical Supervisor.
My work is based on a relational-developmental model of integration. This means I believe very strongly in the healing power of the relationship between therapist and client/s and that the problems which impact our lives and our couple relationships often have their roots in the past. It is within a safe, contained therapeutic relationship that integration of past difficulties can occur.
I am based in Wymondham
I also work at a counselling training organisation, so keep up to date with theory and practice issues.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited

UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
