About me

I am an Accredited member of the BACP and have been a qualified counsellor since 2008.
Coming into counselling can feel overwhelming, scary and often lonely. As a trained Person-Centred Counsellor, I believe my role in the counselling room is provide a safe space so clients feel able to explore their experiences without fear of judgement. I offer a therapeutic relationship that is warm, empathic and encourages people to tell their story in their own time and in their own unique way. I use my skills, experience and creativity to respond to the individual needs of my clients and work alongside them to help determine their own goals of counselling.
I have considerable experience delivering Brief Therapy in a GP and Occupational Health setting as well as supporting clients in long term counselling.
I am passionate about removing the stigma around mental health issues and use my experience as a facilitator and trainer to encourage my clients to learn more about their wellbeing and promote the concept of positive mental health that can be nurtured and developed on a daily basis.
