About

I am registered with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy).

I am here to support you in a calm, caring manner.  

I am here to listen and offer you a safe, confidential space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings. To help you identify repeat patterns and behaviours that may be unhelpful. 

It can be scary opening up and talking about issues and problems that may be troubling you. This is why it is important to find someone who is non judgemental and empathic to your needs. Counselling offers this facility, finding the right counsellor for you is the key.

I can help in many areas such as personal problems, grief & loss of a loved one, narcissistic relationships & domestic abuse,  depression, anxiety, life traumas, loss of identity through job loss, changes in midlife, experiences and feelings of not being able to cope.

I  work with men and women over the age of 18 years. I understand it can feel very daunting to speak about some situations such as physical or mental abuse; whether past or recent situations it can happen to anyone. Accepting you are not to blame is a huge factor in self-healing.  Taking that first step to seeking help is such an important step and undoubtably takes strength and courage.   

I completed my Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling with Redlands. I have trained with ‘Petals’ for Baby Loss, a loss many parents sadly have to deal with and can impact the whole family for many many years.

I am also part of the Creative Counsellors Community.

My training is always ongoing and yes I am of an age where I’ve experienced many real life situations myself!

I currently volunteer with a Women’s Support Group and a Counselling Agency.
