About Myself |
|
I have a passion for supporting people on their healing journey, acting as a compassionate witness to someone's unfolding life story. |
|
Currently I work as a counsellor, body psychotherapist and supervisor in private practice in Stroud; I also work as a group worker and counsellor at Inishfree a local drug and alcohol rehab. I hold a diploma to practise Embodied-Relational Therapy. ERT is a new form of psychotherapy, which integrates body-oriented work, psychodynamic therapy, process approaches and spirituality. I am accredited through the Independent Practitioners Network; a system of peer based, face-to-face accountability. I am also part of the ERT practitioner group. |
|
I run workshops and courses on body psychotherapy and groupwork themes in Stroud and Yorkshire. In early 2006 I initiated the Gloucestershire networking group for Counsellors and Psychotherapists, a dynamic and expanding network to support local practitioners. |

|
I am committed to ongoing professional and personal development. I bring to this work enthusiasm, commitment and a belief in change. I enjoy gardening, nature, and dance. |
