I hope these pages are helpful for you but do feel free to contact me by phone or email if you have any other queries or would like to discuss how I can tailor counselling to suit you/your loved one. I have a long history in the psychology profession starting with behavioural work with autistic children in the 1980s to working within various counselling organisations including charitable, NHS, corporate and private. I also consult on the use of psychological language, communication and behaviour in training materials for EU disaster recovery and management training courses. I am a bespoke therapist insofar as although I am classically trained I am a firm supporter in the individual rapport in the therapeutic relationship. To that end I encourage new clients to meet with me to see whether we are a good "fit" for each other. It is vital to any therapeutic relationship that you feel safe, confident and contained with whomever you choose.
