Training, qualifications & experience

I have a first-class BA (Hons) Degree in Person Centred Counselling awarded from the University of East Anglia and the University of Essex. I have a BETEC Diploma in Counselling Skills from Great Yarmouth College and am a registered Member of the British Association in Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) working towards accreditation. I regularly participate in further training to enhance my practice and skills.

My experience:

I have experience in counselling within organisations such as IAPT working with NHS referrals, Centre 33 (Young people), and Access Community Trust (Housing needs). I spent time working as an addictions counsellor for Open Road (Drugs and Alcohol), and as a trainee tutor for the Access to Counselling Course at Great Yarmouth College. I have also gained 8 years of experience working in colleges in and around Cambridge and currently still offering counselling to students across Cambridgeshire. I have also gained training and a great deal of experience working with members of the LGBTQIA+ community. 

I am most passionate about supporting people to develop and enhance their self-awareness, and psycho-education.
