About me

I was born in South Africa and moved to the UK in 1999.  I worked in the corporate world and enjoyed this for over twenty years when I decided it was time to do something I felt passionate about.  I enrolled on the Introduction to Counselling Skills course and started volunteering for Macmillan Cancer Support.  I have since completed the Level 3 Certificate in Counselling Skills at Farnborough College; Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling at Farnborough College; BA (Hons) Degree in Counselling at Guildford College (accredited by the University of Greenwich) and the Certificate in Counselling Young People at No. 5 Reading.  I have a Level 5 Intermediate Diploma in Supervision (accredited by the CPCAB).

My training is integrative and humanistic, drawing on various theoretical perspectives, integrating knowledge and skills from Person-centred; Existential; Gestalt; Psychodynamic and Attachment Loss & Bereavement theories.  

Working with the here and now and reflecting on difficult issues and experiences from the past or present, I believe can lead to self-awareness and an understanding of learnt behaviour which can lead to change.

I am an Accredited Member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP), I have current liability insurance and hold an enhanced DBS certificate.

I maintain regular and ongoing professional development and supervision in accordance with BACP Ethical Framework and regulations.
