About Me

I work in Lewes and Haywards Heath and online using Zoom.

I have worked with people who suffer with anxiety, depression and PTSD. I have a lot of experience of helping people who have experienced childhood trauma and neglect. I have learnt how to help people in pain and specialise in trauma work.

I am a Clinical Supervisor for individual counsellors and psychotherapists.

I offer a safe, confidential setting and I work at your pace and follow your needs. We can work towards a specific target or in an open-ended way.

Professional Membership

I am BACP Accredited and EMDR Accredited. I abide by both organisations ethical frameworks and fulfil their requirements for continuous professional development.

Professional Work Experience

I have worked as a counsellor in Higher Education, in the voluntary sector and for Relate. Before counselling I worked in  IT; in Finance; and in teaching.
