I have twelve years experience as an NHS therapist and the counselling lead within the organisation. I offer a professional, confidential and ethical counselling/psychotherapy service.

I have been a counsellor for fifteen years, and have worked for various agencies including the NHS, adult and young people’s bereavement services, an addictions service and a further education college offering therapy for both students and staff. I trained as a counselling supervisor at the Norwich Centre led by Brian Thorne. I qualified as a Person-Centred Experiential Counselling for Depression (PCE-CfD) Practitioner and Supervisor with the University of Nottingham. I provide PCE-CfD supervision to trainees and qualified counsellors through NHS Trusts and universities including Metanoia, UcLan  and the University of Nottingham.
