About me

I have been counselling for over twenty years. First as a volunteer counsellor on a phone line and then with various organisations including working with a mediation service, a cancer centre, an agency for older adults and other various charities and the NHS. I now work with couples and individuals either online, on the phone or face to face.

I view myself as a holistic counsellor as I am interested in the whole person. I have a flexible counselling approach and will select the approach I think is best for you as a person and the issue you are bringing. I have been trained as an integrative counsellor and in couple counselling. I offer short-term and long-term counselling and am happy to meet with you for a free non-obligatory meeting so that you can meet me and find out more about how counselling works.

I am a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) adhering to their ethical framework (code of practice). As a counsellor we are expected to have continued support and training which I fully endorse.
