About Me
When I struggled to cope, I felt alone, as though
I had reached rock bottom and could see no
way out of the dark place I was in.
I had no energy, getting dressed was a huge
achievement, even getting downstairs some
To cope with the simplest of things would send
my anxiety through the roof. I felt as though I was stuck at the bottom
of a dark well with no way out.
I saw the light at the end of the tunnel, and counselling gave me the resources
After having personal experiences of Counselling, realising the benefits and having
such a positive outcome, I decided to retrain as a Counsellor.
I wanted to give the support and help to others as I had received.
During my training as a Humanistic Counsellor, I had a placement as a student Counsellor for
a local Bereavement Charity. I worked as a trainee for 2 years and a further 3 years once qualified.
After completing my training I started my own private practice, and in 2019 I moved
my Counselling Practice into the heart of Bridgnorth Town.
I have continued with my training in many areas since qualifying,
becoming an Integrated Counsellor.
I am always looking
to expand my knowledge so that I may provide a bespoke Counselling service to my clients dependant upon their own individual circumstances and requirements, and adjust my therapeutic methods to suit each individual client.
