About me and my therapy practice

I am an experienced counsellor working with Adults, Children and Young People. I currently work in schools and also independently in my private practice just outside Ashby. I provide professional counselling to resolve personal and psychological problems. I have a wealth of experience in Children and Young People's Services, creating objectives and delivering positive outcomes.

I have a genuine warmth and interest in people, and I am a skilled empathic listener which enables me to quickly tune in and connect with others, building meaningful and positive therapeutic relationships. 

Practice description

I work with adults who are in need of therapeutic support. I have myself experienced an eventful life, which gives me a much deeper understanding of what others may be experiencing.

I specialise in counselling with children and young people aged 4 and upwards. With an aim to bring about therapeutic change, I use a range of creative media including sand play, art, clay, puppets and storytelling to enable the child to express themselves in a way that is manageable to them. These methods help to explore experiences of trauma, loss and attachment difficulties that many children face.

I work closely with parents to help to bring about change, which is often necessary with young children, while keeping conversations confidential.


My first session

I find that it usually takes a couple of weeks to get to know each other and to build up a positive relationship. During this time we can work out what out the best way in which to move forwards.
