I believe very strongly that every individual has the ability and right to make their own decisions in life and that provided with the right environment people will find their own fulfilling journey. Before I qualified as a counsellor I completed a Psychology degree and then worked within the finance industry for 6 years. Following qualification I worked within education with children and teenagers.
I now work weekdays, evenings & weekends as a private counsellor and work for the NHS in a GP surgery as a Practice Counsellor. I am a member of the BACP and receive regular supervision and continuing professional development and follow the BACP guidelines and code of ethics. I am also a member of the Faculty of Healthcare Counsellors & Psychotherapists (FHCP) and Assocation for Independent Practitioners (AIP).Qualifications & Training
