About me
I love what I do and have a profound sense of delight when clients discover their strengths and capacities to find new ways of thinking and living.
I have worked as a counsellor since 2013 gaining considerable experience working in a local counselling agency, a hospice and a charity working with clients having a wide variety of issues.
Membership, Qualifications & Experiences
As a member of the British Association Of Counselling and Psychotherapy I am recognised as a qualified practitioner. I adhere to the ethical framework laid down by the BACP both on a professional and personal level.
I receive fortnightly supervision from a qualified supervisor to ensure my work is ethical, safe and effective.
I am a mindfulness practitioner having completed four 10 day silent retreats learning the art of meditation. Meditation is a twice daily practice for me and the benefits from this I have found useful in daily life and in my professional work.
Self reflection and continued personal and professional development are important to me. I ensure I keep learning by attending training days, workshops, online training events, reading, keeping a learning journal and self reflection.
