I am a BACP accredited counsellor & therapist with NHS, business, aid worker, hospice, and private practice experience. I currently work with children, young people, adults and couples. I offer short and long term therapy.
I have 26 years experience and work with a wide range of issues such as abuse, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, parenting issues, relationship and family issues, self esteem, self harm, cultural and transition issues and trauma.
I use an integrative approach using TA, CBT, Gestalt and other techniques. I am an accredited EMDR Trauma therapist and am working to consultant Status. EMDR provides fast and effective relief from traumas such as abuse, bullying (childhood & work place, etc), car accidents, suicides and other traumas.
People who see me typically make significant changes in their lives and feel freer and more able to be themselves.
I also offer supportive clinical supervision.
Sessions cost around £45 for 50 minutes. Longer sessions are available. I offer flexible appointments.
