About me
Please visit my website: realigncounselling.com
You can find out more about my work and book sessions or an introductory chat directly through my website: realigncounselling.com
I offer counselling in a way that goes beyond simply talking things through. Alongside psychological understanding, I naturally pick up on the emotional patterns and underlying dynamics that are often difficult to put into words.
I work particularly well with sensitive over-thinkers who feel deeply, are highly aware, but struggle to make sense of what they are experiencing. Many of my clients come to me feeling stuck, overwhelmed or aware that something isn’t quite right, but unsure what or how to change it.
With over 20 years’ experience, I help you understand what is really going on beneath the surface — not just your thoughts or feelings, but the patterns shaping your experience. This often brings a level of clarity that allows change to happen more directly and effectively.
Many people describe feeling quickly understood and seen in a way they haven’t experienced before.

Background
I began my career in my early twenties as a Reiki and Karuna master healer but found it released a lot of blocked emotion which I was unsure of how to manage, so I began training in counselling in 1998 and have worked in the area of anxiety and depression ever since.
As a counsellor I have worked for various agencies, a private psychiatric in-patient clinic, schools and private practice for 15 years. I have also worked in various other roles with children, teens, young adults and families in youth services, schools, early years settings and children's centres providing counselling, kids coaching and emotional and practical support.
I originally trained as a Person Centred counsellor but have completed many years of research and study in other humanistic approaches such as Gestalt, CBT, TA, as well as life coaching, mindfulness and meditation, and have been influenced by many psychologists, psychotherapists, educationalists and motivational speakers over the years. My practice has always maintained a holistic and perhaps alternative approach.
I am married and a mother to four children (two teenagers and two adult children) and a grandmother to a gorgeous grandson.
Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
