About me
I have been in the counselling profession for nearly two decades, and have helped many clients to get their lives back on track. I know how hard it can be to seek help, and I have learnt from my own life struggles that it is possible to completely turn your life around.
I have practiced as a counsellor, psychotherapist, supervisor and have trained counsellors at one of the countries most prominent colleges, along with working for the WEA and the South Hams District Council.
I truly believe that counselling and teaching others to counsel, is a privilege and I love my work with a passion.
I work with a range of techniques and models and adapt my approach depending on what you need.
I will not waste your time, and a short conversation should help us both decide if we could work together.
I offer A free initial consultation.
