I have a Diploma in Integrative Counselling from the Minster Centre and have a Masters Degree in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy. I am a Registered Member of The British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and work according to the BACP Code of Ethics. I am also a Registered Member of the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP).
As an integrative therapist I draw on several different psychological schools of thought. In practical terms this means that I can tailor different psychological approaches to fit a client’s specific needs. My clients come from all walks of life and bring a variety of issues, including anxiety, depression, bereavement, early attachment trauma and difficulties in forming relationships.
I have spent a large part of my working life in Africa, developing educational media for rural audiences. A vital part of this work has been to listen to people, however different their backgrounds and experiences are from my own, and communicate in an empathetic and non-judgemental way.
I also have extensive experience of working with clients who have been to boarding school.
