Hi and welcome, you can rest assured in the experience I bring to counselling, having worked 16 years as a qualified Counsellor. In that time being privileged to witness people find the support they need, connect to their strengths and inner resources.
I hold a Post Graduate Diploma in Counselling having trained at The Psychosynthesis and Education Trust in London 2008, accredited by the BACP and University of East London. Also, as a Cognitive Behavioural Life Coach, we can work together with CBT and Life Coaching techniques, including Happiness Coaching. If you would you like to benefit from mindfulness skills and meditation we can apply this in our sessions, having trained with Mindfulness UK via the gold standard, Jon Kabat-Zinn Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Course. Mindfulness helps reduce stress and anxiety by living more fully in the moment. With a BA Hons in Politics and Sociology prior to counselling, working for many years in empowerment and healthcare for large organisations, this experience continues to inform my counselling today. |
Professional Experience
Working in private practice in Burntisland Scotland, I have also worked as a Counsellor in London and Norfolk and internationally online for many years.
In addition to private practice I am an Affiliate Counsellor for the Employee Assistance Programmes Employee Resilience Company and Health Hero. I have also worked as a Counsellor for RedArc Nurses, Sugarman Health and Wellbeing, Dover Counselling Centre, Carers Trust, Teens and Toddlers.
Over a career of 30 years, I helped set up Empowerment Networks for Social Services and UK wide charities including Macmillan Cancer Support. Working in policy and development for the public and private sector, I gained a wide understanding of organisational dynamics and stress factors common to the workplace and modern life.
