About me and my therapy practice
I offer a Person Centred / Integrated approach in my practice as a professional counsellor and supervisor with over 23 years’ experience working with both adults and young people from age 16 onwards.
I am registered as a Senior Accredited Member with the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP)
My supervision case load consists of professional counsellors in the public and private sector and trainee / new counsellors who are working towards graduation or seeking accreditation.
Experience
In my early years as a professional practitioner, I have lectured as a tutor in counselling studies at HE level and developed and delivered personal development programs for Further and Higher Education students. I have also worked with Cruse Bereavement Care as a trainer and supervisor for over 12 years.
Much of my experience in counselling practice has expanded within a large organisation educational setting ‘Counselling Service’ seeing a full caseload of up to 25 clients a week. As clinical lead of the practice I developed a graduate programme offering supervised practice in a professional setting to newly qualified counsellors.
I have kept up to date with own personal development, reflecting on past experience of my own personal therapy and regular supervision consisting of 1.5 hours fortnightly plus peer group supervision and experiential learning.

Diploma with distinction Counselling Supervision - Lincoln Uni.
Trained Supervisor Cruse Bereavement Care

My first session
How are counselling sessions planned?
After your first session (assessment), regular sessions of up to 50 minutes are booked, usually once a week, though some prefer fortnightly depending on personal circumstances. A date and time for each appointment can be booked at the end of each session, or a number of appointments can be booked ahead if you need to keep the same time slot.
The number of sessions can vary depending on individual needs.
Some people find that one or two sessions are sufficient for immediate issues while others will vary depending on the type of problem. Counselling is very much a process and, as such, can be reviewed at any time to ensure this is meeting your needs.
