About me
I am a compassionate and approachable counsellor with specialist knowledge in gender, sexuality and diverse relationships, as well as Autism and neurodiversity.
I have extensive experience (over 15 years) in working in Higher Education settings, disability and mental health support, and supporting clients to navigate local and national wellbeing and mental health services.
I am an integrative therapist and draw on a variety of models to suit your individual needs, including person centred, transactional analysis and solution focussed therapy. I like to work creatively with clients and offer a flexible approach to therapy.
Over the last 15 years I have worked in a variety of settings including University and HE colleges, Autism West Midlands and the Rape and Sexual Violence Project. I am also a clinical associate with Pink Therapy and have written a module for their Diploma Course and online training platform on Autism, Gender and Sexuality. I have been published in the University and College Counselling journal for my work with gender, sexuality and faith.
Please note I am solely offering online and telephone counselling sessions.
