My Qualifications
I am a fully qualified Integrative Transpersonal Counsellor. I hold a BSC Psychology first degree. I have worked in the areas of mental health and wellbeing for over 20 years supporting individuals in one-to-one and group settings.
My Experience
In recent years, my experience includes providing trauma-informed therapies and group programmes, with a focus on healing the impact of childhood and adult trauma through talking therapies, body-based and creative approaches.
This has included being the Adult Service Lead at a specialist award winning, trauma-informed holistic wellbeing mental health charity.

How I work in counselling practice
My integrative (meaning more than one model) approach to counselling is influenced by therapy models such as Gestalt, Person-Centred, Psychodynamic, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Transpersonal, Somatic Therapy, Polyvagal Theory and the most recent understanding of the neurobiology of psychology, emotions and relationships. I am a practitioner of mindfulness and in cooperate mindfulness skills to counselling where this may be supportive.
