I offer supervision to therapists/counsellors, either individually and in groups.

I have experience of working with student counsellors as well as qualified practitioners.

Feel free to contact me for an informal conversation about supervision and ask questions. I offer a student discount for trainees.

Supervision helps your growth as a counselling professional. As an experienced supervisor, I offer a collaborative and enriching environment for trainees and qualified practitioners to enhance their skills and excel in their therapeutic practice.

I have 14 years of experience in private practice, EAP, and agency counselling services, using an approach that combines Humanistic theory, Relational Transactional Analysis, Mindfulness-based, and CBT-based tools. Through this integrative framework, I can provide tailored guidance to suit your unique needs and areas of interest. 

I use the 7-eyes supervision model of Robin Shohet and Marco Mazzetti’s theories. The main elements of the supervision are forming a healthy and boundaried professional relationship with my Supervisees.

Whether you're a student just starting your counselling journey or a seasoned practitioner seeking to deepen your expertise, I am here to support you every step of the way. Our supervision meetings can take place face-to-face or through online platforms like Facetime/Zoom, making it convenient for supervisees from various locations.

I understand the value of individualised support, and my supervision sessions are geared towards your personal and professional growth. Together, we'll explore ethical considerations, reflect on your therapeutic practice, and address any challenges you may encounter. My goal is to empower you with the tools and insights necessary to provide exceptional care to your clients.

During the low-cost introductory session, we can get to know each other, discuss your supervision requirements, and identify how my expertise can complement your learning journey. 

Confidentiality is of utmost importance, and I strictly adhere to the BACP code of ethics. You can trust that our supervision sessions will be held in a safe, respectful, and confidential space.

I am an experienced counsellor and psychotherapist specialising in relationship issues for both individuals and couples.

With over 20 years’ experience, I offer a supportive, relational space to help people who feel stuck, disconnected, or uncertain find clearer understanding and a way forward in their relationships.

I offer professional and confidential individual counselling, psychotherapy, EMDR and couple counselling.

Welcome. I am an experienced counsellor and psychotherapist with over 20 years’ experience in private practice, the NHS and agency settings. I specialise in relationship issues, working with both individuals and couples who want to better understand themselves, their patterns, and their relationships.

I offer individual counselling, couple counselling, EMDR therapy, and clinical supervision. My approach is Humanistic and relational, drawing on Relational Transactional Analysis, mindfulness-based and CBT-informed therapies. I work collaboratively, supporting clients with anxiety, stress, low self-esteem and relationship difficulties. Relationship issues may involve partners, family members, friendships or workplace dynamics.

For couple counselling, I work with all types of relationships and identities. I provide a safe, balanced space where partners can explore communication problems, conflict, trust issues, intimacy and life transitions, and move towards greater clarity and positive change.

I also offer EMDR, an evidence-based therapy originally developed for trauma and PTSD. EMDR helps process distressing memories and emotional experiences that continue to affect mood, self-belief and relationships. It can be used alone or integrated with talking therapy to support deeper and longer-lasting change.

For counselling students and qualified practitioners, I provide clinical supervision, supporting reflective practice, professional development, and ethical client work.

Sessions are available face-to-face or online. To help ensure a good fit, I offer a low-cost introductory session, giving us space to discuss your needs and goals.

Confidentiality and ethical practice are central to my work, and I adhere to the BACP Code of Ethics. You can expect a respectful and confidential environment.

If you are seeking support with relationship issues—either individually or as a couple—I invite you to get in touch.

I offer a low-cost introductory session as an opportunity for us to meet, explore what brings you to therapy and consider whether we are a good fit for working together. 

For couple counselling, if you choose to go ahead I then arrange an assessment session with each partner before joint work begins. This helps ensure that the therapy is thoughtful, balanced, and supportive for everyone involved.
