I am a qualified counsellor and psychologist with over thirteen years experience of providing support to adults and young people aged 14 and over in the following organizations:
- No5 Youth Counselling Service supporting young people aged 14 to 25 with a range of issues
- Trust House Reading supporting adults, and young people aged 14-18 dealing with rape, childhood sexual abuse and other forms of abuse
- Slough Sexual Abuse Referral Centre supporting adult victims of rape and abuse
- Victims First Approved Counsellor supporting clients who have been victims of crime, and are survivors of rape and abuse (including psychological and emotional abuse).
In recent years I have developed my practice in the Reading area, from rooms at Mind Garden Therapy in the town centre. I am also able to offer various forms of online therapy.
