I am a fully qualified person centred counsellor and a member of the BACP. I have worked in a GP’s practice for two years with issues ranging from depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and bereavement to workplace stress.
I currently work in the NHS counselling staff and with Place2Be as a school-based counsellor. My work is firmly rooted in attachment theory and as a Person Centred Counsellor I work with whatever the client brings in a non-directive, non-judgmental manner.
I work with individuals for an agreed time period or on an open-ended basis depending on individual requirements.
