Since qualifying I have worked with a diverse range of clients. I believe the Person Centred approach can help you to find your own way forward, whatever you bring to your sessions. I work in an open, integrative and creative style, trusting in the efficacy of the therapeutic relationship.

About me personally
I began my working life as a teacher and then joined Cornwall Fire and Rescue service as a firefighter in 2000, training and working as a therapist along side. In 2021 working as a therapist became my full time occupation. The arts, especially reading and creative writing are a passion of mine. I love being outside and fully appreciate the healing benefits of connecting with the natural world.
