Counselling Changes Lives

I offer flexible appointments including evening and weekend availability. The first session is offered to allow us to get to know each other and to establish a relationship which is based on trust and respect.

I have experience of counselling in a wide variety of different settings including working with a local Cancer Charity and an organisation delivering Employee Assistance Programmes. I also have experience in various GP practices and with Cruse Bereavement Care. In addition, I have a background of working for many years in the healthcare setting.
