About me and my therapy practice

Learning is a process that never ends and we each need to walk our own path, with this in mind I offer learner centred training to enhance life, relationship, and self.  

My bespoke training is offered to groups or organisations looking to expand their understanding of growth and change from a counselling perspective. 

My ethos is to value the skills and resources held within the training group with a view to facilitating meaningful development.  

I have experience of delivering training to staff, service users, members of the community, and students. 

A passion is embodied training focused on felt sense and movement. 

Practice description

Having worked for over 25 years within helping professions I bring a wealth of experience to my role as trainer.

Within the field of counselling my employment has included the roles of counsellor, counselling supervisor, and counselling services manager. 

In education I have been situated in university, collage, and community. Holding the roles of lecturer, tutor, and teaching fellow.

Contexts in which I have facilitated training include community engagement, nhs, social work, and social care.

I can focus on generic counselling skills or specialist counselling such as addiction, sexual abuse, working with children, risk management, reflexive practice, or confidence building. 

In addition to structured program delivery I have experience of facilitating group reflection on reoccurring challenges and progression routes. I also have experience of group and individual consultation. 

I am able to offer bespoke training face-to-face or online.  

Delivery is informative and experiential and I seek to develop a sense of self-belief in participants. Each of us is, after all, a learner. 

My first session

The scope of the first session is tailored to the needs of the group. Generally speaking, a first session is focused on establishing rapport and safety in the training environment. 

It is useful to have in mind an overview of your training needs; topic, duration, number of participants, preferred location, the required level of complexity.  

For organisations I can offer an exploratory meeting to map training needs.
