I am a fully qualified, BACP accredited counsellor and I currently have a small practice at the Albion Clinic in Brighton.

How I work

It’s difficult to choose the right counsellor, so the first session is an opportunity for you to meet me and see if you feel you can work with me.

I work integratively, and believe that the success of counselling is about the development of the relationship between myself and the people I work with.

I work on both a long term and short term basis with adults. I aim to use the counselling style and techniques best suited to each individual client and their particular problems or issues.

My overall approach develops an awareness of how your past is affecting your current life and the impact it is having. People decide to come to therapy for a variety of different reasons, each as individual as the person experiencing them. The management of difficult feelings, such as anger, anxiety, depression and bereavement can be experienced as overpowering, influencing the way we lead our lives and affecting everything we do. Relationship issues of all kinds, with loved ones, friends and even the relationship we have with ourselves can often be found to be a fundamental concern that first brings us to therapy. Whatever the reason, often it is the decision to deal with these problems directly that is the first step in making changes. 

As an integrative counsellor with a humanistic core, I work creatively with the client led by what the client wants to work on in order to overcome any issues or problems that might be blocking the client being happy. 

I abide by the code of ethics laid down by the BACP, this includes regular supervision which monitors and supports the therapeutic work I do.
