About me and my therapy practice
Welcome to my profile
I'm a very experienced counsellor and supervisor in private practice in Exeter city centre.
I work with both qualified and student counsellors and am an approved supervisor for Iron Mill College, the Margaret Jackson Centre and Exeter College.
My initial training was person centred but I'm experienced at and interested in working with supervisees from other modalities and would describe my practice as integrative.
I've got a professional background in mentoring and coaching and really enjoy supporting student counsellors during their training and beyond. in my previous practice in Edinburgh I worked with students from Caledonian and Edinburgh Universities and those studying with private providers.
I'm an experienced counsellor with a Post Grad Diploma in Counselling from the University of Strathclyde, a Certificate in Stress Management (OCR) and Certificate in Creative Supervision (UKCP)
I've been in private practice since 2008 and supervising counsellors since 2014
I offer a free initial 30-minute meeting, after which the fee for qualified counsellors is £55 per 1-hour session. I offer a discounted fee of £40 for student counsellors and for those in the first year of setting up in private practice.
