I am an Accredited Counsellor and a member of the BACP, and also hold the Certificate of Proficiency for the BACP Register.

I have also completed training in Asperger's Awareness and Dissociation in Adolescents and Adults.

I have my own private practice where I work with clients presenting with a wide variety of issues. In addition to this, I work as an Associate Counsellor for The Practice MK, and work with the clients they refer to me.  Previously I worked with clients who had accessed counselling through a busy drop in service, and was part of an agency that worked with gambling addicts.

Other areas of counselling I deal with

I also offer Couples Counselling, and in such sessions I offer you both the opportunity and space to work on understanding each other better. We can work through specific issues that you feel may be contributing to problems in the relationship, and look at different ways of communicating with each other.

Further information

I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and work within their ethical framework and guidelines. This means I will always be working in the best interests of my clients, and as part of this, I also have monthly supervision for all my work.
