Profile

Welcome to my profile. It can be daunting thinking about going into therapy and I hope this brief information will help you find the right person to work with. In order for your counselling to be effective ensure that you feel comfortable talking to the counsellor. Check that the therapist is qualified and accredited with a professional organisation.

I work in private practice in Wimborne and Poole Dorset. My background is in nursing and counselling psychology. I have worked in counselling for 15 years in a variety of settings such as General practice, Education and the Workplace. I work with many counselling models which are tailored to the individual client and issues presented. I see individual and couples of all ages.

I aim to provide a safe place where clients can start to explore difficulties without feeling judged. I am passionate about the value of counselling, psychotherapy and coaching. Having therapy at the right time with the right therapist will help you lead a more fulfilled life and overcome life problems such as anxiety, depression, relationship problems, stress, loss and change.
