My aim is to help you to overcome whatever is preventing you from living your best life, by actively listening and supporting you in a safe environment.

As an accredited counsellor, I am fully committed to doing my best for you. I am a member of the Accredited Counsellors, Coaches, Psychotherapists and Hypnotherapists (ACCPH), and I abide by their code of ethics and practice.

From a young age I was very unsure of my own identity and what I had to offer to the world. Growing up without my dad made me feel like I was a victim of rejection. Shyness crippled me and being bullied on multiple occasions resulted in a sense of loneliness and fear of sharing my inner world with others. Anger was a friend to me; I was angry at my dad for abandoning me and angry about my shyness.

As life went on, I learned to love, like and accept myself (both the good and bad aspects). This resulted in a freedom that I had never experienced before and gave me an appetite to help other people in their life.

You do not need to go through your difficulties alone. If you feel that I could be of help to you then please contact me.

I’m passionate about helping others cope with life’s problems and, in particular with grief, having experienced many losses myself.

For many grieving is a very lonely, private experience, often seen as unacceptable in company. In offering Bereavement Counselling I join my clients on their grieving journey, listening with empathy, allowing them to talk freely about their struggles, their thoughts and emotions resulting from their loss, and enabling them to find hope, purpose and happiness in life again.

My online bereavement counselling encompasses the loss of loved ones of all ages, including miscarriages, and is not limited to our family and friends, but also our pets. I see it as a privilege to come alongside others in their time
of need and would love to help you if you’re struggling with loss.

If you had known me prior to Gary and the Gap Counselling, you would have thought being a Counsellor was the last thing you would ever have seen me doing . I was a hard partying girl from the North East of England who had spent the majority of her working life as an Executive Assistant in corporate London, a million miles away from where I found myself when I first contacted Gary at The Gap Counselling, through Cancer Support Group in Mallorca.

I had been through a bit of a rough time over the previous 5 years. Whilst I was living and working in Germany, I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer. In a foreign Country with a medical system, I had no knowledge of, I found myself having to navigate the language and bureaucracy as well as the disease itself. Long story short, the treatment was a success and I came out of it all relatively unscathed – or so I thought. But as time moved forward although I was feeling better physically, I was feeling much, much, worse mentally. My long-suffering husband couldn’t cope with my worsening outlook with regards to my health and life in general and finally told me “You need help, I don’t know what else to do to help you”. He suggested I get counselling.

Through regular Counselling I began to understand why I was feeling like I was and was guided towards finding a solution. I realised that the job I had been doing for the past 30 plus years, was in fact the equivalent of bashing a square peg into a round hole. During one of our regular sessions Gary asked me what I thought
about training to be a Counsellor, I didn’t have to think about it for too long. What an amazing idea! I was itching to pass on my experience of beating cancer in the hope it could help and make everything less daunting for even one person. What better way to help someone than through the Counselling process.

Fast forward to today, I am now a qualified Level 3 Accredited Counsellor and am lucky enough to be starting this new chapter in my life by working as part of The Gap Counselling. I am looking forward to using the new skills I have acquired through the Gaps accredited training program and being able to help and guide people who need a safe space to talk as well as giving them somewhere they can come where there is no judgement and an empathetic ear, as well as a cup of tea!
