About me
Thank you for taking the time to view my profile especially if you are feeling stressed or are finding life difficult at present. I understand that making the first phone call to a counsellor can be difficult. As a counsellor I can offer you space and time to look at the issues you are facing or difficulties in your life present or past. Throughout my working life I have been involved with people, enabling them to look at their issues, helping them to change and go on with a positive attitude and a new hope.
I am a professionally qualified counsellor and a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I work within its Ethical Framework for Good Practice providing a safe and confidential place where you can talk and be treated with respect and assured of a non-judgemental approach.I am also a Senior Accredited Member of The National Counselling Society (MNCS Snr Accred).
I work from an integrative perspective and will offer you counselling which best suits you to find the way forward for yourself, helping you to understand your problems and make choices.

Other areas of counselling I deal with
Walk and Talk Therapy
Have you thought about seeing a counsellor but are afraid that sitting in a therapy room would be difficult, maybe you are anxious about that first session or sitting face to face with someone you don’t know.
Walk and talk therapy is an opportunity to talk with a counsellor in a more relaxed environment, in the outdoors. This type of counselling is especially appropriate for individuals who are going through a life transition, are feeling anxious or are experiencing grief or a significant loss. You can walk and talk about anything that is troubling you or any issue you feel would benefit from therapy.
For more information please contact me and we can talk about how this might work for you.
Adoption Issues
I have over 10 years experience working with people involved in adoption - with adoptive parents, birth parents and adoptees and am happy to talk with you if you feel counselling would help you as an individual, a couple or a family.
