About me and my therapy practice
I work online offering Psychotherapy, Counselling and Clinical Supervision. I am UKCP reg. 网爆门 reg. and a UKCP approved supervisor. I have worked therapeutically with people for over 25 years. I am also experienced in working on an international basis.
Practice description
I have extensive experience of working with whatever a person brings to therapy. I also have an interest in working with abuse, disability, disabling conditions, gender, self-harm, self-injury, sexuality and trauma. I have a deep respect for the differences that exist in people and it is this that reinforces my commitment to promoting equal opportunities as well as working with people in an anti-discriminatory way.
I began working as a therapist in 1999. In my first decade I worked exclusively from a Person-Centred perspective. Through my second decade and beyond I have incorporated integrative, embodied and relational aspects of the therapeutic approaches and modalities into my practice.
My first session
I offer a free Mutual Assessment Session - subject to availability. I do this because I recognise that one of the most important factors in any therapeutic work is the relationship between a client and their therapist. Without a strong working alliance the work will suffer. This is why I offer an hour of my time free of charge for you to meet with me. You can then decide for yourself if you would find what I offer of value and I will also let you know if I feel that I can be of help to you.What I can help with
Abuse, Anxiety, Bereavement, Depression, Disability, Identity issues, LGBTQ+ counselling, Loss, Personal development, Redundancy, Relationships, Self esteem, Self-harm, Sex-related issues, Sexual identity, Sexuality, Stress, Trauma, Work related issues

I am a UKCP & HIPC approved clinical supervisor listed on the UKCP directory.
Practice description
Since 2004, I have provided supervision to both individuals and groups, drawing on my extensive experience to foster professional growth and reflective practice.
I have provided supervision to therapists from Person-Centred, Gestalt, Humanistic, Integrative, Group Analytic, Jungian, Psychodynamic and Cognitive Analytical Therapy backgrounds.
From my experience of working across modalities, I have become accustomed to working with transference and counter-transference dynamics.
