About Me
I am an experienced, accredited counsellor and EMDR Trauma specialist and have been practising in Barnstaple and Ilfracombe, North Devon for 8 years. I am committed to providing professional counselling and psychotherapy in a safe, supportive, confidential and non-judgemental environment, guided by my professional membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy."When we accept our stuckness
our lives begin to shift."
I have over 20 years experience in "Education", supporting people with their every day work/relationship issues and finding appropriate solutions. I am a counsellor and co-ordinator (managing a team of counsellors) with the "Young Devon" charity in North Devon, supporting 12-25 year olds by working on relationship issues, depression, self-harming and self-esteem, abuse, and a variety of other issues.
I am a Barnardo's registered - approved counsellor.

I offer counselling students therapy/supervision at a reduced rate.
