I'm a qualified Integrative Counsellor with a Person Centred approach, a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), and I've worked in project management, marketing and education for 20 years.I'm interested in people, their experiences and their stories. I've enjoyed a career built on connecting with people, effective communication, and the ability to create strong working relationships.I am interested in finding common ground with the people I meet, but my counselling style is more about embracing differences and working with empathy and curiosity to gain a deeper understanding of what life is like for you.The therapeutic relationship between client and counsellor is unique; it's a professional arrangement with ethical and practical boundaries in place, but what's shared within sessions can feel much more personal, vulnerable and emotional. I try to bring the two sides of the relationship together, working with professionalism as well as warmth and compassion.
