Available Tuesday to Fridays, offering face to face or telephone appointments. Face to face can be in Manchester (Wednesday morning and Friday afternoon) or via ZOOM. 

I am an experienced counsellor, counselling supervisor and reflective practice facilitator who values working ethically and compassionately.  I value Continuing Professional Development and enjoy learning,  and this includes learning from my clients.  I am a culturally-sensitive practitioner, and have worked with issues around diversity and inclusion, racism and bias. My work with people has included trauma, relationships, self-esteem, loss, identity,  depression and anxiety. I aim to establish a good working rapport from the beginning, offering warmth and curiosity without judgement. I believe that being in a genuine engaged relationship with  clients creates a safe environment for them to process the painful and difficult and compassionately find resolution, management strategies or ways of healing.  

I will offer you a confidential space to explore the issues you are facing, the questions of meaning and possibilities of resolution; to work through difficult emotions and look for peace with the past.  Your sessions will be a place where you can have the freedom to be; to develop your own integrity, accept yourself and make positive decisions about your future. My beliefs underpin my work. The values I hold, of loving unconditionally, forgiveness, reconciliation, humility, being non-judgemental, having mercy, being kind, having integrity, valuing spirituality, exercising free will wisely; all sit with the humanistic perspective of counselling and therapy. I value learning and wisdom, exchange, challenge and intuition.

I work within the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ Ethical framework and have worked with issues of self-harm and suicidal ideation within safeguarding boundaries. 

As a supervisor and reflective practice facilitator, I bring a holistic view to the work and have worked with individuals and groups involved in family, immigration and criminal law, public enquiries and child protection, in addition to counsellors and psychotherapists and psychologists. 

Most sessions are delivered either via Zoom or face to face at The Remedy lounge in Manchester, easily accessible by car or public transport. The rooms are large and well ventilated and there are the usual sanitising protocols in line with previous government guidelines around Covid19.
