I am a Fully Qualified Integrative Counsellor that has been working in Private Practice since 2011. Since gaining my qualification I have continued my professional development and have qualified and specialised in many areas of counselling, psychotherapy and hypnotherapy.

My other areas of expertise comes from working within the field of and life experience itself, and include substance misuse and addictions, learning disabilities, domestic violence, pain and chronic fatigue, life-limiting illness, and much more.

I have extensive knowledge around fibromyalgia, musculoskeletal and arthritic diseases as well as other pain and fatigue conditions. I offer counselling/coaching sessions that can help people gain a better understanding and management skills for a life worth living.

I also have an Advanced Diploma in Mindfulness. Mindfulness can be practiced in many forms. I have my own unique ways of introducing this so that it can be weaved into everyday life, so that it can be used even in a working environment. Using mindfulness has changed my life in terms of fibromyalgia and stress management enabling me live a fulfilling less painful and fatigued life. From this I share my knowledge and add this into my counselling sessions where required. I call this a plug in therapy.

Private Practice in Counselling/Psychotherapy and Hypnosis.

I run my Private Practice from my own Therapy Room in Brent Knoll Somerset.  It is set in a semi rural location that provides beautiful scenery and offers lots of places to walk and relax.

I call the first session an initial assessment.  In this session we will discuss any information that is relevant to help you on your counselling journey. From this we can discuss the best way forward and what therapies might be used. 

There is no commitment to continue after the first session if you feel the time is not right for you or if you feel you haven’t found what you are looking for with me. 

The first session is usually an hour and is charged at the rates shown. 

Supervision is an important part of the journey in your counselling and psychotherapy career. It helps to keep yourself and your clients safe when working through difficult issues or supports you through other aspects of being a counsellor, whether this is working in private practice or in an organisational settings.

I have been a qualified counsellor & psychotherapist for nearly 10 years working from my own Private Practice in Somerset working with adults, children and young people, where I offer a wide range of therapies.

my fees for Supervision via ZOOM are £70 for an hour and half and I offer a reduced rate of £25 for 45 minutes for trainee counsellors based on the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ fortnightly guidance for students. 

I run my practice from my own therapy rooms in Brent Knoll Somerset.  Brent Knoll is a beautiful village on the outskirts of Burnham On Sea which provides beautiful scenery and lovely relaxing walks.

All first sessions require an assessment to gather information about yourself and what I can offer you as part of your supervision journey.
