Female

My private counselling practice has been in existence for a decade. My clinical experience includes working with people suffering from a variety of issues associated with trauma, displaying depression, anxiety and feelings of helplessness. I have supported people from the effects of loss i.e., separation, ill health and grief. Those that have suffered childhood abuse are often seeking therapy to find closure. A decade of private counselling practice has given me the experience and opportunity to assist many people, adults and children, to access a service that is both professional and ethical. I also work part time as the Counselling Co-ordinator at a large youth counselling organisation. I am responsible for providing counselling services for a number of establishments managing both volunteers and qualified counsellors. I have been involved with training workshops and organising conferences for those interested in topics such as domestic violence, anger management and working creatively within therapy I was a Youth worker and a residential social worker prior to training as a counsellor. I have also worked with offenders and people who were suffering the affects of long term mental health.
