About me

Since 2016, I have worked as a counsellor with people from a diverse variety of backgrounds who have brought issues such as anxiety, depression, loneliness, anger management, loss and bereavement, traumatic experiences, work issues, low self-esteem, relationship problems, family issues and many more.


I particularly specialise in working with:

​

  • Loss and Bereavement

  • Trauma

  • Anxiety and Depression

 

I work with clients to help them positively transform their lives through developing their self-awareness and capacity to act effectively in the world. ​I strongly believe that we all have deep within us the ability to cope and respond to any challenge or difficulty we face in our lives.

I have trained as a Gestalt Therapy Counsellor and I use elements of Mindfulness, Jungian and Transactional Analysis in my approach. I work in a holistic manner to help clients become more aware of their own body, mind and senses, helping them to develop their understanding of themselves and their life situation so that they can respond to situations in their life in new creative ways that are more satisfying.


In addition to working in private practice, I also work as a counsellor in an NHS GP surgery and with the cancer bereavement charity, The Loss Foundation. I have worked in the charity sector for over a decade with charities such as SANDS (The Stillbirth and Neonatal Death Society), Livability, Restless Development and VSO.

​

I am a fully qualified Counsellor who is a member of the BACP and subscribes to the BACP codes of ethics and standards. Information on these can be found on their website. www.bacp.co.uk
