About me

I am a qualified counsellor having successfully completed a Level 4 Advanced Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling.  I am also a member of the National Counselling Society (NCS) which means I adhere to their code of professional and ethical practice.  Details of the NCS's ethical guidelines can be found on the NCS's website:

​

In my capacity as a counsellor, I also worked for 18 months as a volunteer counsellor in Exeter, where I saw clients presenting with a range of issues from depression, anxiety, self-esteem, stress, childhood trauma and loss and bereavement among many others.  For 2+ years, I also worked as a volunteer grief support worker with a bereavement charity in Exeter, supporting children and young adults who had experienced the death of a significant person in their life.

In my life outside of counselling, I am a mum of two, a determined but rather slow-moving runner, an avid reader of all things medieval and most likely candidate to move off the beaten path when out walking and getting lost!
