Experience & Qualifications

Clinical Practice

I have a private practice and five years’ experience working for two psychotherapy and counselling charities, offering long-term therapy and short-term counselling.

I worked for four years as a secondary school counsellor, counselling children aged 11-16 years.

I volunteer for Cruse Bereavement Care.

During the Covid 19 pandemic I have trained to work remotely and now offer both short term counselling and long-term therapy online.
