About me
Hello, I am a qualified therapeutic counsellor practicing since 2007, firstly in Australia and now in Southend-on-Sea and Westcliff-on-Sea. I offer face to face sessions in Westcliff-on-Sea and on-line sessions for those unable to travel.
I offer a safe, confidential and non-judgemental counselling relationship in which you can explore personal or difficult issues that may be causing you distress.
I am a Registrant member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society whose register has been accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Registers programme.
My approach is integrative and incorporates cognitive behaviour therapy, solution focused therapy and person centred. That said, it is important that my approach works for you, this will be explored before we commence our relationship.
I work with clients short and long term depending on your needs.
My areas of practice are:
- Addictions
- Anxiety
- Bereavement and loss
- Burn out
- Depression
- Discrimination
- OCD
- Self-esteem/self-confidence
- Sexuality
- Stress management
- Transition to retirement
- Employment issues
I offer supervision to practicing counsellors and trainee counsellors. I hold a Certificate of Attainment in Professional Supervision and teaching qualifications; I tutor in counselling skills to Level 5.
I also offer professional supervision and support to other professionals including managers, team leaders and front-line case workers.
Home visits are subject to negotiation.
