About me and my therapy practice
I specialise in working with Substance Misuse and have over 20 years experience of working with people who experience Alcohol and Drugs difficulties.
I have worked with individuals and couples over the last 20 years in various counselling organisations, Bereavement Counselling, GP surgeries and since 2004, in private practice.
I worked as a Counselling Manager at the counselling services of Addiction Support and Care Agency (ASCA) where I supervised and trained volunteer counsellors. I also worked as Deputy Chief Executive at a local charity MIND in Kingston where I managed a counselling service for local residents. Between 2010 -2014 I facilitated experiential groups on counselling courses at NESCOT College.Practice description
