Hi. Thank you for visiting.
Counselling is a passion of mine.
To help people for a moment on their journey in life is a privilege.
I began my counselling journey over 10 years ago when I went along to a local WEA course all about Freud. Little did I know how much those few weeks would shape my life. I was surrounded by all this knowledge but also I was surrounded by a group of people who were connected by their shared interest in understanding themselves and others. I was hooked.
This led me to my local adult education centre where I completed a level 2 and level 3 counselling course, and then onwards to college to gain my diploma qualification in Therapeutic Counselling. During this time I began my placement at a wonderful agency. They supported and nurtured my skills, allowing me to grow as a therapist and as a person.
Since then I have continued to educate myself all the way up to a Masters Degree in Psychoanalytic Analysis at the Tavistock and Portman. Stopping in on many different elements along the way.
I have never lost sight though of the fact that above all counselling is about human to human contact. To simply be present with somebody at their most vulnerable, help guide and equip them with the tools they need to move forwards.
