A Little About Me and How I Got Here...
Like many of us, I have previously worked for many years in the sales and service industry so I have a real understanding of working in these types of settings. I am a real people person that has a passion for helping others develop and learn about themselves. I am also a parent and can fully empathise with pleasures and the difficulties that parents face in their lives.
I completed my Advanced Diploma at the Dartmoor Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy, where I received a rich and varied training of the highest quality. Drawing on the skills developed during my training, alongside my own life experience, I offer a dynamic and responsive counselling service.
I am an accredited and fully insured individual member of the NCPS, and I adhere carefully to their code of ethics. For further information, please feel free to ask or visit the NCPS website: https://nationalcounsellingsociety.org/
