About Me
I trained at the Wealden College of Counselling and Psychotherapy (2009-2011) on their British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) accredited Diploma in Counselling Course and was awarded a Diploma in Humanistic Integrative Counselling.
Further Training
I have continued training in areas such as trauma and sexual abuse, suicide, anxiety, depression, loss and bereavement. I continue to be curious about other models of therapy as well as newer findings in the world of therapy and how they impact our mental health such as neuroscience, mindfulness and the role our nervous system plays.
Experience
I have been working with clients for 12 years now. Much of this has been in private practice, but it also includes working for a national bereavement charity (I hold a certificate in bereavement counselling) and volunteering at a local charity for 5 years.
In this time I have worked with clients who present a diverse range of issues such as; anxiety, depression, childhood and relationship issues, anger and low self-esteem. I have also worked specifically with victims of sexual assault and abuse as well as those affected by suicide or struggling with suicidal thoughts.
In the past I have also worked as a volunteer mentor for young people at the Prince’s Trust and with a charity for single parents.
I am a member of the BACP and work to their code of practice and ethics. I also hold professional insurance. In addition to face to face counselling, I also offer counselling by telephone and online video platforms like Zoom or Vsee.
