About me and my therapy practice
How I Can Help
You may feel overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected or something else, and you may be unsure how to move forward. I offer a compassionate and down-to-earth approach using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a practical and proven approach that helps people navigate anxiety, depression, anger, or feeling lost.
ACT helps you become more open, self-aware, and resilient, reconnecting you with what really matters to you.
I鈥檓 an integrative counsellor, drawing from various traditions but grounded in what works best. Some clients find just a few sessions helpful; others choose to continue longer. How many sessions we do will be your choice.
I鈥檓 told I鈥檓 calm and non-judgemental but prepared to challenge when necessary. I鈥檒l be honest with you about whether counselling could help, and what might be most useful.
Sessions take place in a quiet, garden-based room with safe driveway parking鈥攐r over Zoom or phone if you prefer.
About Me
I began my career in military and later went into public service, including management and leadership roles. My path to counselling has been shaped by years of experience supporting others, including voluntary work with the NHS, Carers Support West Sussex, and Olive Tree Cancer Support.
