I worked as the Head of Counselling for a charitable counselling organisation for several years and I have been a volunteer counsellor for two counselling charities for a number of years

My initial training, to Masters level, was in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) but subsequent training and experience of other counselling models means I am able to offer flexibility and will use the approach best suited to your needs and personality. I am qualified in EMDR therapy to Postgraduate Certificate Level. EMDR is an approved therapy for trauma by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) and the World Health Organisation (WHO). We will work together to find out what works best for you and we will regularly review our sessions to ensure we are moving in the right direction.

I work with adults on an individual basis and have experience of counselling people for a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, bereavement or relationship issues. Many people have talked about feelings associated with low self esteem or lack of confidence and some have come as a result of past experiences and painful memories that are impacting their ability to enjoy life now.

Prior to my work as a counsellor I spent many years involved in recruitment, training and Management Development in manufacturing, education and insurance. These experiences enabled me to work with people from a diverse range of backgrounds and interests and added to my awareness of the variety of stresses and strains life can bring. These experiences also made me very aware of the tremendous resources people have within themselves to overcome adversity. I consider that part of my work as your counsellor is to help you identify and tap into the resources you have within yourself that will enable you to make the changes you would like to see in your life.
