Previously a therapist in a Primary Care counselling service for 10 years which became an IAPT service, I enjoyed a wide range of working styles, practices and client issues presenting in Primary Care. I also ran a private practice alongside my role as a senior practitioner and I  have supervised with organisations specialising in sexual abuse for 15 years and domestic violence trauma for 5 years. Now fully in Private practice, I  work with a range of clients referred from Local health services, GPs, several insurance companies, self referrals, Diocese and have a comforable, relaxed and professional consuting premises with a private sole entrance.

All sessions are 50 mins in length and in our first session I take an extensive history so we can both decide if we can work together, what you are looking for and if I can help. We can discuss ways to address the presenting issues and agree a way forward. Regular reviews and use of appropriate outcome measures help us both see the progress of the work or indicate how/where ajustments need to be made.

Experienced supervisor working with a range of individuals, modalities, organisations and student therapists. Also offers pastoral/reflective supervision as accedited by APSE. Accredited as supervisor with BACP, BABCP, BAPPS, UKCP and interested in supervisees professional development across time.

In our first session we focus on assessment of your current needs, contracting and mutually agree issues such as modality(s), boundaries,  periodic review and begin to build a sound and safe superisory space to develop practice within.
