As an integrative Psychotherapeutic Counsellor I have a passion in supporting adults and young people with their mental health and wellbeing.

Being Integrative means that I draw from a variety of psychological approaches that best suit your individual needs. I work compassionately and flexibly to provide a safe, non-judgmental and confidential space for you to explore anything that you wish to talk about.

I have clinical counselling experience having worked with adult NHS GP referrals with a variety of mental health difficulties for a local Dacorum agency, also working with addiction.

Affiliated with the PFOA Police Firearms Officers Association supporting all front line emergency service personnel with their mental health and wellbeing, having worked in this field for over 12 years.

I volunteer with Cruse working with bereaved adults and supporting children and young people within schools in Dacorum and Three Rivers.

As well as my private practice working with adults and children, I worked as a school counsellor at a specialist communication and interaction senior school for students with a variety of neurodivergent needs including ADHD, Autism, PDA, Dyslexia, Genetic conditions, LD, SEMH and behavioural difficulties.

I have an interest in supporting parents and families who have children with SEN, due to my own lived experience of having children with complex needs.

Registered member of the British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy BACP and work to a strict code of ethics and confidentiality.

I hold an enhanced DBS to work with children and adults.

Further regular training is an important part of my work to improve knowledge and skills. I have completed CPD training in a variety of psychological areas.
