About me and my therapy practice
Welcome to my profile! I have worked in the business of empowering people for 25 years. I am a person centred counsellor but use an eclectic approach. Over the years I have undertaken continued professional development in the fields of Solution focused therapy, Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), Gestalt, NLP and Transactional Analysis to name a few. I am currently working towards becoming a trauma-informed therapist by the end of 2022. I have extensive experience and skills in coaching and mentoring and am a qualified teacher and careers advisor. I have particular interest and experience in working with survivors of all kind of abuse as well as working autistic people. I am an ally to people of colour, the LGBTQ+ community and people with disabilities and am passionate about highlighting social injustice. For an informal chat to explore what you might gain from my services please get in touch.
Practice description
I have worked for years in senior management roles within the social care industry and have worked as a professional change agent and troubleshooter not only to facilitate personal change with individuals but also on a corporate level, transforming failing care and residential homes and social care services to bring them up to the required standard in a matter of months. In addition to this I have managed a secure forensic unit providing me with insight into the mind and motives of offenders and at the other end of the spectrum have worked with those who have experienced rape and sexual abuse.
I offer one to one counselling as well as life and careers coaching. My corporate work includes staff training and critical incident debriefing. I also open up psychoeducation courses and self care / support groups to the public from my therapy room in Hartlepool.
