About me and my practice

I have been in Private Practice since 2014. I am currently taking new client online. I work via the zoom platform. I therefore can see you were ever you are in the country. I have a vast amount of experience working with the LGBTQIA community.

I also have experience and an interest in working with bereavement. I have previously worked for a bereavement charity based in Birmingham. Everybody grieves differently and there isn't a one way fits all. I can help you to work your way through grief and navigate and explore your emotions.

I work with those people who find themselves childless not by choice. I am myself childless not by choice. I therefore know from personal experience how important finding the right counsellor is.
