I’m passionate about helping you make more of your life. I have a Masters degree (with Distinction) in Person-Centred Counselling & Psychotherapy. I counsel men, women and couples of many occupations and nationalities, inc. IT professionals, medics, artists, lawyers, professors, engineers, executives, care workers, factory and shop workers, as well as students and unemployed, the retired and expats in UK or overseas.
I also have an Advanced Post Diploma Certificate in Person-Centred Couples Counselling, and a Post Graduate Certificate in Counselling Supervision, and a clear enhanced DBS check. I have trained in Solution-Focused therapy, though the main approach I use is Person-Centred. My PhD is in modern approaches to enlightenment.
I’ve counselled at an NHS hospital, a charity, a multi-cultural partnership and as currently in private practice.
As well as qualifications, I bring personal life experience to help you. I’m from Glastonbury, and have worked in the quarrying industry, as a solicitor and as a part-time university teacher to UK and international undergraduate and postgraduate students. All my work has involved helping people progress, and I have wide experience of people’s relationships, personal problems, struggles and conflicts. All of this feeds my enthusiasm for helping people gain power and confidence, improve themselves and change their lives in positive ways best for them.
I offer short and long term counselling and psychotherapy. You don't need a diagnosis. Counselling can help some medical conditions (inc. depression, addiction, sexual performance) and “well” people gain personal growth, better relationships, career progress or change, more happiness, meaning or purpose in life.
The use of the title Dr in this directory listing relates to the member’s doctorate qualification. However, this does not imply a general medical qualification.
