I am an Integrative Counsellor which means that I am trained in and can use different types of counselling to suit your needs. Person-centred counselling is the foundation of my practice but I also use CBT, Transactional Analysis and Psychodynamic modalities. Please have a look at the "What To Expect" page for more information on the different types of counselling that I offer. Once we have identified what you need we can work together to consider the best way forward.
​
I have considerable experience working with young people and adult clients including the elderly. I worked as a school counsellor at two secondary schools for over 5 years and have also worked at a care home for the elderly. I have volunteered at a local counselling agency which provides affordable counselling to adults, children and young people. I have significant experience helping clients with anxiety and work in a voluntary capacity for a registered charity that helps people who suffer from Panic Attacks, Phobias, Obsessive Compulsive Disorders and other anxiety related disorders.
​
I can be found on the BACP register of Counsellors and Psychotherapists and adhere to their code of ethics and good practice. I hold an enhanced DBS (CRB) certificate.
