About me

I have over 9 years therapeutic experience of private and organisational person centred counselling, and am a member of the BACP.

I completed my Diploma in Counselling at Joseph Pristley College qualifying me as a therapist, in 2011. I then returned to education at Leeds Becker University where I gained a BSc in Counselling and psychotherapy in 2014.

My early career started with ongoing training alongside 1 academic year of work with children aged 5-11 in a school environment providing 1:1 therapeutic interventions. My work there also included devising and delivering workshops to other staff members within the school environment to help gain and maintain relationships with other piers.

I have 3 years experience working with mild mental health issues within an organisation, with clients aged 18+ displaying/presenting issues such as, but not exclusive to:

  • OCD
  • Addiction
  • Loss/bereavement
  • Fertility issues
  • Relationship issues
  • Depression/anxiety
  • Abuse – sexual, emotional and physical
  • Family problems

I currently have my own private practice which is based in Tingley.

1 of my passions is the work at Barnsley Rape Crisis Service’s where I have worked with clients aged 11-18 previously and currently clients age 18+ who have been impacted by sexual violence. I have 8 years experience in this capacity and extensive additional training in this and similar fields.

For approximately 2 years I have also been working closely with a company to support gambling addicts, providing 1:1 and couples sessions for those impacted by addiction.

I am currently in my second year of MSc in psychosexual therapy, and can provide trainee psychosexual and couples sessions

I am committed to providing a safe/confidential environment for all clients encouraging a good therapeutic relationship which allows clients to explore their thoughts and support them through there journey to understand and change their current life situation.
