I am an experienced and qualified
counsellor and assessor. Presently
I work as a counsellor in private practice, and I work in the mental health field in education.
I am passionate about helping
individuals in distress while respecting their difference. And see both counselling and education as
empowering people to live more authentic, richer, & more meaningful lives,
by bringing a deeper psychological understanding to our experiences and
relationships.
Before training as a counsellor I
had careers in industry and in the health & social care sector.
When not counselling, or involved with my other work, I like to divide my time between family & friends, spending time in the out-doors, and on my music interests.
