Our first session is explorative and collaborative, where we will decide on the goals you wish to work on. Thereafter, sessions take place on a weekly basis, on the same day at the same time each week.

Welcome to my practice. I aim to provide a private space in which you are able to address those aspects of your life which are causing difficulty or distress. The aim of my work is to improve the quality of your life, to help you take control of your own wellness, thereby reducing the need for medication.

Following a career in teaching and training, I began my counsellor training in 2006. I have been working in a GP setting since 2014 as well as working in my own practice. I am also a Level 4 CPCAB Tutor at Westmeria Counselling College, where I teach adult students who are training to become counsellors.

I also run regular Mindfulness Courses. I am a member of The British School of Meditation and have trained with Mary Neilson, who works as a trainer and consultant in schools and businesses. Part of my 6 week course is to encourage Emotional Resilience, thereby reducing the intensity and duration of emotional responses in life, such as anger, fear, self-sabotage and other uncomfortable emotional reactions.

I am currently offering weekly 1:1 sessions at my home practice in Keston, plus on line sessions on Zoom, Face Time and Whats App, and also sessions over the phone.

I am a fully qualified integrative counsellor. Working in an integrative way means that I can approach my work with you whilst drawing on a number of therapeutic approaches, so that you can receive counselling which is tailored to your needs.

I work with a range of emotional difficulties and I am able to offer counselling to individuals of all ages. I have extensive experience dealing with:-

• Abuse Affairs and Betrayals  
• Alcoholism
•  Anxiety and Panic Attacks  
• Bereavement and Loss 
• Breathing Techniques for Anxiety
• Self-Compassion and Self-Care
• Developing Emotional Resilience
• Getting Past your Break Up
•  Illness (Acute and Chronic)
• Inner Child Work
• Menopause
• Relationship and commitment issues.
•  Self-Harm
• Student A level and University issues
• Spirituality
•  Exsistential issues
• Trauma and Abuse
•  Work Related Stress
  

I am in clinical supervision to BACP requirements to sustain and monitor my working practice and ethics in my counselling practice.

I am happy to speak with you over the phone so that you can decide if you would like to meet me for an initial session. Please feel free to contact me to discuss your next steps. 

My first session is an assessment whereby we discuss your presenting issues and main concerns. We will look at the goals of therapy for you ( what would you like to explore, achieve, improve or work on), along with any history which is important to you, and family relationships.

At the end of the first session I will ask you if you are happy to work with me going forward. Your session will take place at the same time, on the same day each week. Your goals and our work together will be reviewed every 6 weeks.

All sessions are 50 minutes in duration.

Monday - Friday 10.am - 8.30pm

Our first session will be exploratory where we will look at practices and your wants and needs.
