I see the therapeutic process as being collaborative; we will work alongside each other to support the development of a greater understanding of yourself and your relationships with others. 

I am an integrated therapist who draws from different therapeutic fields to meet each client’s needs. Whether using person-centred techniques, cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT), creative interventions, transactional analysis, Gestalt or psychodynamic approaches, my focus is always on offering a non-judgmental, empathetic, safe and caring space for you to be heard.

As a counsellor, I hold a DipHE in Counselling. I am a registered member of the BACP and the ACC.

I previously worked as a nurse across many specialities during my career. I have a BSc in Professional Practice.

I have worked in palliative care, chronic disease management, carer support, funding for care packages, chemotherapy administration and general nursing.

I have experience in working with a range of clients, including bereavement, chronic illness and life-limiting conditions, depression and anxiety, anger, and low self-esteem. I am a trauma-informed counsellor.  

I previously worked privately and in the NHS for many years as a nurse in many specialities, including palliative care and cancer treatment, case management and funding, and dementia care.  

I offer an initial 15-minute phone call to see if I would be the right counsellor for you. I offer face-to-face and online counselling sessions or a mixture of both, depending on what is best for you. I offer a range of appointment times and offer a limited number of concessional spaces at a lower cost. Please let me know if you would like to be considered for one of these spaces.
