I work Monday to Thursday. I have daytime slots available but no evening slots.

I am a Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ accredited counsellor and qualified supervisor and have worked in private practice for over thirteen years. I work in a friendly, positive and constructive way. 

I have significant experience of working with burn out, stress, panic attacks, general anxiety and depression, and issues surrounding self esteem and confidence. I am currently doing a lot of work around wellbeing in work and am working with clients from the private sector, as well as charity workers, actors, academics and NHS employees. A lot of the work is to support people in preventing burnout, improving self care and deal with workplace stress.

Sessions are 50 minutes long and usually start weekly but can be fortnightly or at a frequency to suit your needs. I work in a calm, relaxed and supportive way using a variety of theoretical models. The space is yours to process difficult experiences, work out changes and goals you'd like to have and to reflect on your life and the impact that lived experiences may have had on you, coping habits you may have developed that are no longer useful and a chance to look at new ways of coping and building resilience.

I am a BUPA registered therapist.

I work in an integrative and person-centred way. I'm trained in CBT, EMDR, transactional analysis and narrative therapy. I'm also trained as a therapeutic coach. I have had training in ADHD and worked with a lot of clients with neuordiversity. How I work and the theoretical model I bring into each session depends on the needs of each client so it varies between clients. I still believe the most important aspect of the work is to creating the relationship and ensuring relational depth so that a client feels safe and supported and can start to think about change.

I offer an initial phonecall to talk through how I work and what the client is looking for and how we might work together and then the first full session is a 50 minute session charged at the standard rate.

I am a qualified supervisor and provide monthly supervision of counsellors working in agency settings as well as those in private practice. 

I work with both newly qualified counsellors and experienced therapists. I also provide external supervision to frontline workers who work in charities supporting vulnerable clients such as refugees. I currently provide supervision to a number of counsellors who are new to setting up in private practice and provide advice and support for how to build up a successful practice. I do a lot of work around wellbeing and burnout in the workplace and how to manage and improve self care.

I work differently depending on the experience and the need of the supervisee. I am supportive but also challenging and work in an integrative and person centred way. I have been a qualified supervisor for over 10 years and really enjoy the supervisory process.

I am experienced at supporting supervisees through their own development, training and cpd needs and supporting them with any safeguarding or ethical issues. 

I have experience of supporting both newly qualified and experienced supervisees working in a broad range of areas that includes but isn't limited to those working with clients who have experienced trauma, abuse, burn out, menoopause, depression and neurodiversity as well as health anxiety, physical illness and relationship issues.
