I am an experienced counsellor/Psychological Therapist have in worked in primary care for the past twenty-four years and latterly as an E.A.P. provider for N.H.S. I am passionate about my work and describe myself as a people’s person who feels that we all share a common goal of humanity, having a sense of purpose, living life, not just surviving. Learning how to accept the unfairness of being a human in an uncertain world. Understanding that there no guarantees, or rules in life that state, ‘it must always be fair’.

I use several psychological therapies and work holistically offering the client a safe, non-judgmental space to explore their issues. The importance of building a relationship of trust helping to facilitate the clients process by encouraging open honest dialogue with empathy and unconditional positive regard.
