Working days are Monday to Thursday, Friday and evening or weekend appointments can be booked by arrangement. 

Hours are flexible between 09:30 and 18:00 both in person in my 'Repair and Rebuild' space in Cambridgeshire and remotely across the UK using your preferred online video platform (Teams or Zoom)

Following my qualification and training in supporting victims of sexual and domestic abuse, I specialised in behavioural change interventions in the Criminal Justice sector specifically in the area of domestic abuse working in the challenging arena with those who cause harm. During this work I have developed my skills and practise in understanding complex family dynamics, safeguarding, child protection and the emotional ‘fall out’ of separation and divorce. I also have lived experience of rebuilding and restructuring my own family following a difficult and painful divorce.

Embedded in a person centred trauma informed approach, I am trained in Integrative Counselling Practise which allows me to seek to understand your own lived experience at your pace and use different theory modalities to inform how that may have shaped your relationships and your responses to dealing with difficulties. 

I have a specific interest and passion in supporting my clients who are navigating separation and divorce including 'Post Separation Abuse' and 'Child Contact' challenges. I have significant professional experience in supporting parents through challenging child/teen behaviours including but not limited to those children who have been violent in the household and with challenges of parenting a child through an eating disorder. 

Regular Sessions are 50 minutes in length. However during our first meeting I prefer to offer a reduced cost 30 minute ‘meet and greet’ option where we will spend the time getting to know each other to see if you feel confident and connected to want us to work together. Here I will also detail the boundaries of the work we would do should you decide you wish to go ahead.

Once you are comfortable to proceed you first session will be the full 50 minutes and at this session I will conduct an assessment with you which will hep us to identify any immediate issues where you might require additional support and areas you would like to form the focus of our work together.
