About me and my therapy practice

While working for a number of charities and in private practice, I gained experience of working with a broad range of clients with Addiction, Depression, Anxiety, Grief, Abuse, Relationship problems, Low self esteem, Suicidal idealization, Trauma and Personal Growth.

I work primary from a Gestalt humanistic origination, which focuses on the mind and body relationship, which incorporates experimentation, creativity, mindfulness and awareness.

I came to counselling through my own personal explorations, which have given me a deep understanding my own and of clients’ processes and the importance of having extra support at certain times in our life. I continue with my own personal development through a wide variety of personal ongoing training and workshops.

I work according to the BACP Code of Ethics and undertake regular monthly professional supervision as set down by BACP. I would be pleased to talk to you if you have any questions before starting or as an enquiry.
