About me

I am a senior accredited member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP). I have worked in various therapeutic settings including drug and alcohol intervention, charitable counselling services, management of a counselling service and in the NHS. I now offer therapy in a private setting from a very accessible venue in Northwood with free parking. I work with people from age 16 upwards.

Perhaps you are disappointed with the way life has worked out for you; or you feel hopeless, are grieving, depressed or struggling with general anxiety or panic; you might be fearful of the future or search for new meaning in life.

I will offer you a confidential space where you can talk about yourself, your life, and your relationships, things which may be painful or confusing, causing stress or make you feel uncomfortable, depressed, anxious, angry or sad. We will explore concerns which you might not want to burden your family or friends with. Or perhaps you find that medication does not address all the underlying issues of your symptoms and you suspect that emotional and mental distress needs more than one approach to healing.

We will consider how you feel and how this affects you, your relationships, your behaviour and choices. Gaining insight into how your life experiences impact your adult self and relationships - including how you manage challenges you may be facing - is necessary before considering how to change or move forward.

I recognise that therapy can be a painful process, but as we engage in an open dialogue we can explore possibilities that will lead to a more fulfilling life, emotional well-being and increasingly satisfying relationships.
