I am an Accredited Psychotherapeutic Counsellor with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society. I am a registered member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society and the National Hypnotherapy Society. My registration numbers are NCS20-00711 and HYP19-06210. I have experience in care, nursing and as a social carer.
I believe my life experience has helped me gain a good knowledge of compassion and respect, which is transferable into many sectors including counselling and care. I have successful experience working with clients who have anxiety, low self esteem and confidence, depression and trauma in their lives. In each of these cases the client and I work together to empower the client and help them to find a way through their issues to successfully move forward. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
