About me

Please visit my website where you can find out more information and book all your sessions or an introductory chat with me through my online booking facility.

I have over 25 years of experience working with people of all ages and backgrounds. I have a warm, friendly and conversational style of working. Please read my 5 star reviews from previous and current clients on Trustpilot - see link below.

I help people realign with their true selves to live their lives more authentically, with more confidence, resilience and abundance.

I developed a system that takes you on a journey of self discovery, healing old wounds and traumas, clearing away old habitual thinking and limiting beliefs. I guide you through a discovery of key components of yourself, teaching you various tools and techniques that help bring those components into alignment so you can feel:

  • more authentically you
  • more in control of who you are and how you live your life
  • more confident and happier in your self
  • more clarity about how to navigate your way forward through life's ups and downs.

Having started my career as a Reiki and Karuna Healer in the late 1990's, I understand energy and how we store emotions in the body. Although I no longer practice Reiki or Karuna I learnt over the years how to read peoples energy without needing to place my hands near your body. This enables me to:

  • Give you additional insight into where you are stuck, identify limiting beliefs and behaviours
  • Help you separate what's yours and what you may have unwittingly been carrying or lumbered with from someone else.
  • Help you create awareness of and clear unresolved issues and release emotional trauma from your body that is sabotaging or or holding you back.
  • Ultimately help you remember who you truly are and live your life with integrity.

To find out more about me and how I work,  please have a look at my website: realign-counselling.co.uk, where you can book your sessions or a 30 minute introductory chat online!

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
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Accredited Register Scheme

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.
