I have personally experienced ‘Sudden Death Syndrome’ and all that can bring- the manifestations of grief, anxiety, hopelessness, trauma and despair.
Having recovered from unanticipated consequences, and being able to acknowledge the mountain that I personally needed to climb to overcome this, I am now deeply moved and fulfilled when I can help and support someone who is struggling to cope with their mental health and daily life.
‘At its best, therapy helps us experience more meaning, more fulfilment and contentment in our lives.’
I offer Person-centred counselling psychotherapy with an integrative approach, and have a Counselling Diploma Level 4 with 20 years experience of counselling.
I am an Accredited member of the BACP (Membership number 386354) and am committed to working in accordance with their ethical framework.
I am also an accredited member of the National Counselling Society.
During my career a great deal of my work has been with anxiety, depression, feelings of sadness, bereavement, trauma, issues of attachment and loss, relationship difficulties, and struggles relating to low self-esteem, self-worth and issues around feelings of fear and shame.
Currently, I am employed as a Remote counsellor pyschotherapist with a global health insurance company and have my own private practice.
I have a wealth of experience working with anxiety, depression, low mood, feelings of sadness and low self-esteem. I support clients through life transitions, and health problems, including cancer.
I work extensively with issues relating to grief, bereavement and loss, including pregnancy loss. I have worked as as an Adoption counsellor for the General Register Office under section 51 Adoption Act 1976. This provided me with the opportunity to gain a wealth of knowledge, skills and experience working with adopted adults.
