I chose to do an Integrative counselling course so I can draw on different theories as each client is an individual and deserves to be treated as such.  Some like creative working, others would not entertain that at all, so there is no one fits all, you deserve to experience totally individual interventions based upon you and how you like to work in your sessions.

I have a space that is private and confidential within The Lodge Practice in the High Street, Crowborough.  This is a well respected and professional practice with ethical principles at the heart of what we do. I abide by the BACP Ethical framework.

Our first meeting will be an assessment for us both. You to make sure you feel comfortable with me and the space I provide. Me to ensure I am working within my knowledge and expertise in the areas you wish to bring to your sessions and make realistic changes.

Supervision for me is a vital part of my work, ensuring I am working within an ethical framework and my competencies, if I need to enhance my knowledge about a clients presentation supervision highlight this for me.  In turn I offer the same safe space for student and qualified counsellors to explore the work they are doing with their clients and feel safe enough to talk about every aspect of their practice.

My practice as a supervisor includes supervising student counsellors on placement at the secondary school I am a counsellor.  Private practice is with a variety of colleagues at varying stages of their practice.
