Email meAbout me
I offer face to face individual, integrative counselling for teenagers and adults and non-directive play therapy for children aged 5 years and over. My counselling approach is creative, integrative and person centred. I can offer a safe, confidential space to explore issues and focus on what is concerning you.
Prior to becoming a counsellor I worked in education for 30 years specialising in supporting children and young people with special educational needs, and in particular autism, this experience informed my specialist therapuetic work supporting adults and children with a diagnosis.
