Me

I am a qualified integrative relational counsellor, which essentially means I have embraced several different theoretical models from which I can draw. I have specialised in working with clients who have suffered trauma, loss, anxiety depression among other challenges. I have worked with clients from all backgrounds. I also understand the unique challenges that working in the music, arts, and entertainment industry brings. I am a trained baby loss counsellor and have worked with Petals for over five years. I always endeavour to create an environment which enables the client to trust me and explore their situation within a confidential supportive relationship.

I have a Graduate Certificate in Counselling Psychology from City University London and a Degree in Counselling from the University of Suffolk. I am a Registered Member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists www.bacp.co.uk. I am accountable to their Ethical Framework for Counselling.

Before training as a counsellor, I lived and worked abroad for eight years in Vienna and  Amsterdam. I worked in both small and large international organisations. On returning to the UK I worked in the music industry with bands, managers, crew and management companies. I went on to work within the media and entertainment industry before moving out of London. The thing that tied all my work experience together is a love of meeting people from different backgrounds. It has been an education and has set a great foundation for my counselling practice
