Email meAbout me
I am a qualified Counsellor, who is committed to providing counselling in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment. I will help you to explore difficult thoughts and feelings you may be experiencing. I will not judge you or tell you what to do but will encourage you to talk about what is going on and explore what you are feeling, so we can work together to identify ways of coping.
I work with individuals on an open-ended basis or for an agreed time period, with the aim of enabling you to enhance your life and to live it more fully.
I work from a home office, located in the village of Silchester which is close to Tadley, Reading, Newbury and Basingstoke, and within easy reach of North Hampshire and West Berkshire. There is ample parking on the driveway
I am a member of British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and am registered with the Counselling Directory for professional counsellors.
I receive regular Supervision in accordance with the BACP Ethical Framework to ensure my professional standards are maintained.
Training, qualifications & experience
- L2 Certificate in Counselling Theory
- L3 Certificate in Counselling Skills
- TA101
- Foundation Degree in Humanistic Counselling based on Transactional Analysis
The humanistic approach provides the client with an opportunity to explore their self-development so they have a deeper understanding of who they are and what they are feeling, resulting in improved self-awareness.
Transactional Analysis provides a connection with a client’s past and identifies how this may influence on today's decisions. This approach helps clients become more connected with their thinking and acting skills.
As well as working in Private Practice, I currently volunteer as a Bereavement Counsellor at St Michael's Hospice in Basingstoke and have previously worked at Andover Mind.
I regularly attend workshops and training courses to ensure I am in the best position to help my clients.

Fees
Sessions last for 50 minutes and are charged at £40.
The first session gives us an opportunity to get to know each other, for me to understand what has brought you to counselling and for us to determine whether we would be able to work together. This may take longer than 50 minutes and if so, there will be no extra charge.
Full payment for sessions is required at the beginning of each session by card, cash or cheque
The full fee will be charged for missed appointments. For appointments cancelled with less than 24 hours notice, fees will be payable at the next session.
Appointments are currently available on Monday afternoons, Fridays and some evenings.
