<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nMy Qualifications & Experience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
I am a fully qualified, insured member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, with a Masters in Psychology and a Post-Graduate Diploma in Psychosynthesis Counselling, and I hold certificates in both grief- and trauma-informed practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Before training at The Psychosynthesis Trust, I spent many years volunteering in mental-health support, working with vulnerable children and adults in hospices, schools, care homes and hospitals. I was a Cruse Bereavement Care volunteer from 2020-2023, supporting people throughout the Covid years, and alongside my private practice I continue to volunteer as a therapist for a charity in Bristol, working with bereaved and terminally ill people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I can help, and have experience working, with depression, anxiety, grief, childhood trauma, bereavement, end of life, disordered eating, relationship difficulties and much more. If you are currently struggling, have specific issues you want to address, or feel that your way of being in the world is at odds with the way you feel inside, please reach out and let’s discuss your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n
