About me and my therapy practice
I completed an advanced diploma in Relational Supervision with Karl Gregory and Sheila McCarthy-Dodd in 2022. I qualified as an integrative counsellor with an FdSc in Counselling from the University of Bristol in 2013. I have extensive experience of different issues and have worked at various agencies including: Bristol Drugs Project, Swan Project, Affordable Talk and the Southmead Project. I have managed my own private practice since 2016.
I have experience of supervising both qualified and trainee counsellors and use my experience and skills to support other counsellors.

About me and my therapy practice
I am a qualified integrative counsellor having completed an FdSc in counselling through the University of Bristol. I am a registered member of the BACP. My specialities are Trauma and addictions and I have extensive experience in both of these. I have recently completed a practitioner course in Eating Disorders.
My basic therapeutic approach is person-centred but I integrate elements of other approaches including CBT and Gestalt therapy to best suit the needs of my clients and to enable them to reach solutions to their issues.
I believe that the relationship between therapist and client is the most important aspect of counselling and is paramount to helping resolve client concerns. I aim to offer a confidential and non-judgmental environment for clients to explore their difficulties and to support them to find solutions. I have sessions available on Wednesday evenings, Thursday evenings, Friday evenings and Friday afternoons.
