In my early career I spent 5 years in the British Army as a combat medic and driver. I then went on to a career in mental health nursing. I have fostered children and raised my own family.

​

I have extensive experience with Neo-natal intensive care and trauma.

​

I have spent many years working with the rehabilitation of offenders and several years working with -and supporting- young adults with learning difficulties and challenging behaviour.

​

I have personal experience supporting close family members dealing with diverse mental health issues such as cyclothermia, PTSD, dyslexia, ADHD, autism and identity issues.

​

All of these life experiences led me to a time in my life when I found that I could hopefully put all of this experience to good use and decided to embark on a new journey to study and qualify as a BACP-accredited counsellor.

​

I now offer a safe space for clients to explore and develop healthy ways to move forward.
