My Special Interests & Experience
Counselling for children is a supportive process that helps young people address emotional, behavioural, and social challenges. It provides a safe space for children to express their feelings and experiences, fostering self-awareness and coping skills. Together we can address depression, anxiety, traumatic experiences and more.
Couples counselling focuses on improving communication, resolving conflicts, and strengthening the bond between partners. As your therapist, I can facilitate discussions and techniques to encourage you and your partner to express your thoughts, feelings, and concerns openly, promoting understanding and rebuilding trust.
An ADHD or Autism assessment can bring relief and clarity, helping individuals understand and accept their life experiences better. Adult neurodivergent diagnosis may also evoke emotions like grief, anxiety or sadness for “what might have been”. I am here to help you talk through your experiences in a safe, and calm space.
Coming out as gay or transgender can be a liberating experience, but it can also bring up other complex emotions. It’s normal to feel a huge range of feelings such as relief, anxiety, fear, and happiness. Therapy can provide a safe space to process these emotions, gain support, and navigate difficult relationships.
Professional Services
Supervision & Foster Carers
I can be your student supervisor.
My student counselling services are available either as supervision (necessary as part of your counselling placement) as well as the 1-1 personal counselling required as part of your course. This supports self-reflection and builds a deeper understanding of who you are. I am very happy to have a chat with you on the phone to answer any questions about this service. Please feel welcome to talk and see if you think I am the right fit for your journey into mental health services.
I am a retired foster carer with 15 years experience.
My experiences working as both a foster carer and a counsellor, provide a unique opportunity for prospective foster carers to be truly ‘seen’ and understood on a much deeper level.
The work of a foster carer can be an all encompassing task both mentally as well as psychically. It is of vital importance to have access to support that is able to allow you to process and understand your thoughts and feelings. These feelings that may arise that don’t make “immediate sense” or are the result of secondary trauma. The supervision that I can offer foster carers is compassionate, non-judgemental and caring. I will provide you with a safe space to explore whatever comes up for you as an individual.
