The Way I WorkMy practice is Person Centred Counselling. I put you at the centre of the process. I treat people with respect, understanding and honesty. I take my cues from you and will not impose my views on you. I believe that people are the experts on themselves but may not realise it. I am interested in your experiences. I wish to help you make more sense of what troubles you and to empower yourself. But I am not afraid to challenge or suggest practical ways forward. Above all I am here to listen and understand.

Previously I worked for over 40 years as a social worker and team leader. My clients were mainly children and families, foster carers and adults with mental health issues. In my practice, I saw people suffering considerable emotional pain and used my counselling skills to help them. I learned that people can find strength through their struggles, can discover greater inner calm and can move on with their lives. My qualifications: BA (Hons) degree 1972; Certificate of Qualification in Social Work 1978; Diploma in Counselling 2000.
Charges£65 per 50 minutes for individuals and £100 for couples. I leave space in my schedule so I can offer you an early appointment. I offer a free short phone call before the counselling starts to introduce myself.
