About me and my therapy practice

I am a warm and experienced accredited counsellor specialising in loss (of a loved one, relationship, health, job etc), bereavement and the trauma and challenges these major life changes can bring. Areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, PTSD, effects of abuse, self harm and low self esteem.

I qualified as an online counsellor and tutor in 2017 allowing clients additional options and convenience in accessing counselling support. I work with young people (11+), adults and couples.

I have gained extensive experience working at hospices, youth agencies and with regional Police and NHS services. I currently work at Thames Hospice counselling patients with life limiting illnesses and their families and carers. I have additional experience specifically in safeguarding and advocacy gained whilst working with vulnerable adults with disabilities.

I can help you gain clarity and understanding about yourself or issues that concern you bringing you greater self-acceptance and peace of mind.

These are challenging times for everyone so it makes sense to seek counselling or support to help you gain coping strategies, strength and resilience in this unsettling time of constant change.

Please contact me if you have any questions, you can be assured of a warm welcome and professional service.
