Skills

" Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending. "

Carl Bard


I have excellent interpersonal and communication skills with an ability to use humour and challenge while working with counselling clients.

I use a variety of counselling techniques including gestalt, cognitive and existential therapies. I have over 20 years of experience in assessment of individuals, couples and families through my work in an adoption agency and private practice.

I have facilitated group work with social worker, adopters, foster carers and birth mothers and currently facilitate group work for the Northern Initiative for Women with Eating Distress.  In groupwork I remain flexible to the needs of both the individual and the group, at times using information, support and therapy to enable movement.

I am happy to offer supervision to counsellors and counsellors in training.
