About me

I am a fully qualified and accredited psychotherapist and counsellor.

I have enjoyed a successful business career and started to train as a therapist at the age of 42 after part-selling my business.

During the various placements undertaken in my training, I worked as a therapist in sexual-health environment, in a general doctors practice service and also in a prison. During this time, I worked with many people of differing sexualities, genders, ethnicities, religions and relationship status. This work covered individual therapy, couples therapy and group work.

As a therapist I believe in offering expertise, being active in sessions and treating each client as a unique individual. I aim to explore the dilemmas and difficulties that life invariably throws at us all. This work can sometimes take a few weeks or can take longer, depending upon the presenting issues and the needs and desires of the client.

While therapy can invariably be tough and challenging, it can also be fun and enlightening.
