Down to earth counselling

Focused and constructive counselling can help to clarify the issues, gain a more helpful perspective and decrease the sense of isolation. By developing tools and strategies that strengthen their inner resources, we can reduce stress and fear, and increase our sense of personal power I have a constructive and practical approach where we work together to make the changes you want to see.

About me and my practice

My approach is integrative, combining various therapeutic models with my academic support experience. I may draw from techniques from cognitive, behavioural or mindfulness approaches, transactional analysis, focusing, compassion focused therapy and more.

Experience

I am a qualified counsellor with experience working with adults in NHS services and young people in education.

I am registered and accredited with the BACP which is a professional body, regulating counsellors and psychotherapists. This means that I follow their code of ethics and they can hold me accountable for my professional practise. Click on the logo below to see my entry on the BACP register.

During my training I undertook three counselling placements. The first was at SWEDA, a charity that supports people affected by eating disorders. The second was at Mangotsfield Secondary School, counselling 11-16 year olds. The most recent was with Oasis-Talk, a company which provides psychological services for the NHS. Here I provided counselling to adults who had been referred through their GPs. I currently work part-time at a school in Dorset.

I undertake regular supervision and continuing professional development. These are some of the short courses and workshops I have completed in the last few years.
