As I wrote in the About Me section - I spent a large part of my career in criminal justice. This experience means that alongside my general counselling service, I can offer specialist forensic experience and services.
For many years I worked with service users in the probation setting who had experienced a lot of trauma and life adversity. I was met daily with both the challenges of everyday life as well as the devastating after effects of trauma often manifesting in addiction, uncontrollable emotions, relationship difficulties, self harm and mental health diagnosis. I have training in working with personality disorders.
I facilitated therapeutic group work and this experience has later led me, as a therapist, to counselling in prison. In this setting I have worked with survivors of childhood and adult abuse who have CPTSD, PTSD, and dissociative experiences and diagnosis.
Alongside my private practice, I manage a counselling service for women leaving prison who have experienced child loss and separation.
I have specialist training in the prevention of harm by working with people who display sexually harmful behaviour.
I also work to support the families and partners of those who have been affected by 'the knock'. I offer a gentle but down to earth approach to our work and understand your need for my total confidentiality.
Having spent a lot of time in public service, I am also here to support professionals who may have feelings of burnout or have experienced vicarious trauma.
