About me and my therapy practice

My practice is easily accessible by public transport and by car (there is on-street parking) and I am able to offer evening and weekend appointments as well as normal office hours. My room is up a short flight of stairs; if access is difficult, I do offer home visits.

Before I trained as a counsellor, I worked for 20 years in the high pressured world of sales, marketing and PR. Prior to that, I travelled extensively as the child of a member of the Armed Forces, attending numerous schools, with all the attendant challenges of having no firm base as a young person.
