About Me
Having worked in the care sector for 10 years, I accessed counselling for myself following a major life event.
Finding the process tough but transformational, I decided to explore ways to help other people in the same way.
I therefore began my counselling training and completed a
Post Graduate Diploma in Counselling at Abertay University, Dundee.
I am an accredited counsellor, supervisor and EMDR practitioner. Working as a therapist for over a decade, I have a wealth of experience with a wide range of clients and the issues that they bring to therapy, including anxiety and depression, personality disorders, gender issues, substance misuse, suicide and self-harm, domestic abuse, trauma, childhood abuse, long-term and life-limiting health conditions, bereavement, and relationship issues. I have worked within the 3rd sector, in private practice, for IAPT and EAPs.
I have special interest in the areas of addictions, trauma, and LGBTQ+ issues.
I work within the ethical frameworks of the BACP, COSCA, and EMDR UK, and honour the values contained within them. In keeping with these frameworks, I receive regular supervision from experienced and accredited supervisors as a means of maintaining my effectiveness as a counsellor, EMDR practitioner and clinical supervisor.
I work online using Teams or WhatsApp, by telephone, or in person
