About Me
I’m an experienced counsellor offering a calm, quiet, non-judgemental environment where you can talk about whatever is on your mind.
I’m based in Whitchurch, Hampshire, less than 10 miles from Basingstoke, Andover, Newbury and Winchester.
I’m an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. This means that I’m bound by, and work within their Ethical Framework – www.bacp.co.uk.
I’m a trainee member of the UK Council for Psychotherapy which means I am also bound by, and work within their Ethical Framework – www.psychotherapy.org.uk.
I’m registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office as part of the Data Protection Act.
How I Can Help
You can use sessions to offload, for support with an issue in your life right now, or to explore more long standing issues. I have experience of working with depression, anxiety, self esteem, relationships, loss, bereavement, separation, identity, sex, self harm and suicidal thoughts.

How I Work
I have an FdA in Humanistic Counselling with Transactional Analysis. This means that I am trained in recognising the personal growth potential in all of us, to offer a non-judgmental environment to explore this in and to work with you to explore how your past has influenced the decisions you’ve made and how you interact with others.
My training since has largely been about the importance of the client / counsellor relationship, gaining a BSc in Reflective Therapeutic Practice from Metanoia. I’m continuing this with Post-Diploma Training in Integrative Transpersonal Psychotherapy at Re-Vision.
