About me and my therapy practice

I have been involved with the care of others most of my life, this has given insight to the needs of others. Twenty years ago I trained as a Psychodynamic Counsellor to give understanding to those things life presents to us in our daily living and our responses to them. I have worked through the years within a local counselling service, with victims of crime, with the NHS and in private practice. I have added to my training model other models of counselling and psychotherapy to inform my work….see below. I maintain my Íø±¬ÃÅ Accreditation status each year through Continuing Professional Development (CPD).

Practice description

Home Counties Counselling is a small practice currently providing Zoom and Telephone sessions.


We use Integrative models and various insights primarily as listed below but not limited to:

A model of work inclusive of understanding how the past affects the present (Psychodynamic)

Understanding how the body informs us of our state of mind (Psychosensory).

Insight as to how, as a result of trauma, we use different ‘parts’ of who we are to survive and equip us to move forward in daily life but leaves with us a sense of being less than we used to be or could be, so lacking in energy and at times self-respect (Internal Family Systems). 

The need for compassion towards all we work with (Compassionate Enquiry).
