Support you need to find your way
I am a qualified counsellor and a registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP), and adhere to the BACP Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling. This includes a requirement to receive regular and thorough supervision of my practice, and also to undertake regular continuing professional development (CPD).
I am an integrative counsellor and offer a warmly relational stance, allowing the relationship between us to guide our work together. My approach is informed by psychoanalytic and attachment theory as well as by current neuroscience, and I have a wide scope of study and integration of practice and techniques including Psychodynamic counselling, Somatic Trauma Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Gestalt therapy and Mindfulness practice.
I have over 20 years professional experience of working one-to-one with people from all walks of life. This has included massage therapy, NHS maternity care, and counselling; both privately and within a registered charity.
As well as my general counselling practice, I am a Founding Director of a Charity, The Birth & Wellbeing Fund, offering specialist support through counselling, massage and holistic therapies to women, partners and maternity staff who are struggling with issues around pregnancy, birth, pregnancy loss and stillbirth, and early parenthood.
