Email meAbout me
I'm a BACP-registered psychotherapeutic counsellor specialising in working with trauma, sexual abuse, depression, existential issues, displaced creativity, spiritual crisis, attachment disorders and/or pretty much anything else you've got going on. My work is grounded in the tradition of humanistic psychology; I proceed relationally, meaning that working with me involves forging a collaborative relationship whereby we pool our respective resources to find the answers you need. No matter who you are or what you've been through, our therapeutic relationship will deepen and intensify your capacity for meaning and fulfilment in your life.
Training, qualifications & experience
BA (Hons), English Literature (1992)
MA, Contemporary Poetry (1993)
Post-Graduate Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling (2007)
Since 2005 I've worked for a well-known organisation offering support to survivors of sexual trauma and am, at this point, probably one of the most experienced trauma counsellors in Wales.
My background is in the creative arts. Between 1995-2005 I fronted a succession of psychedelic rock groups. Currently I'm writing a memoir.

Therapies offered
Fees
£50 for a one-hour session. I operate a sliding scale and can make concessions, so if the price is an issue we can discuss this in our first session and come to a mutually-acceptable arrangement.
