About me

Hello - I work with clients who are struggling with relationships.  This may manifest itself as addictive behaviour, anxiety, depression or pure frustration.  Due to extensive experience working with new parents,  I specialise in attachment issues within relationships and coming to terms with major change or upheaval in your life, including adoption or surrogacy.  This may be through divorce, loss, a traumatic event and/or struggling with emotional family or personal relationships which can also manifest from being neuro diverse. Together we explore what is happening here and now and eventually create coping skills and a deeper understanding of the impact of emotions on your mental and physical health.  If separating from your partner counselling can help you deal with the emotions triggered through the pain of separation and enable you to gain clarity on your thoughts to begin a new life.  My first career was within HR and recruitment and for some clients with issues at work I combine a coaching approach which focuses on identifying restrictive growth and we create future goals for career development.

My counselling approach is integrative which means we explore the triggers for your anxiety.  When one person talks and another truly listens it creates a reflective process which shines a light on the reasons for lack of connection with others or feeling different to the 'crowd'.  Together, we find patterns of behaviour that originated in the past; behaviour learnt from our main care givers, friends or challenging work environments.  This learnt behaviour may not necessarily be your natural way of being and gaining insight in to how behaviour gets embedded within, can enable you to make different choices and discover your natural self.  Together we re shape the pieces of the jigsaw and build new coping mechanisms to navigate everyday challenges.  Rebuilding your life with a new prospective. 

This change can happen within six sessions, but sometimes it can be long term work.  However, the benefits to your wellbeing are deeply rewarding and life changing.

I offer support to those within the LGBTQ community and having travelled extensively I embrace working with those from different countries and cultures.  Outside of my counselling, I run a network of holistic practitioners such as acupuncture, hypnotherapists, osteopaths, reflexologists, and yoga.  Combining physical support with talking treatment creates longer term sustainable recovery.  This network is accessible via my website www.nurtureyourtime.com.

Fees - £70 for 50 minutes. I am available for 'in person' sessions. In Beckenham BR3 Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday. Online sessions also available.  Concessions for no or low income, students and trainee counsellors.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
