A safe place to talk and to be heard.
Welcome to my website
"It is my deeply felt belief that we all have an essential drive towards growth, good communications and self-confidence. Counselling can help us develop this in our relationships, our work and in our life."
I am an accredited member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP), registered with the United Kingdom Register of Counsellors & Psychotherapists (UKRCP) and the Adlerian Society (UK) and the Institute for Individual Psychology (ASIIP).
I work from my private practice in Rugeley. I typically receive clients from within my local area as well as from Burton-on-Trent, Tamworth, Lichfield and Whittingdon, Stafford, Stone and Stoke-on-Trent, Cannock and Walsall, the West Midlands and Birmingham.
I adhere to the guidelines laid down by the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy BACP, the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council GHSC and the Adlerian Society of the United Kingdom & The Institute for Individual Psychology ASIIP.
There are some areas of our lives that we know we would like to improve but no matter how we try we seem to go round in circles. Talking it through and discover how we can make some small or significant changes can lead to a much happier, more balanced and satisfying way of life.

Support for parents, carers and famlies
As a parent I am well aware of the many issues that arise while bringing up a family. Sometimes we would like some help because "our little or growing angels" are, at times, not quite what we expect and we are at a loss what to do. As a trained and experienced Parenting Consultant, I lead parenting groups for parents and carers whenever funds are available or privately. If anyone would like me to run a course in their own vicinity, please contact me and I will send you details.When there are problems in the relationship, parents have separated or are going through a divorce, they often look for support in how to deal with the children who may be reacting against it.
Where new relationships have developed and the decision has been made to move in with the new partner, a professional consultation will offer ideas and options to help make this go as smoothly as possible for the children.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions regarding Rugeley Counselling and Supervision services.
You can email me any time or give me a call on 01889 584926 or 07890425960, If I am unavailable, please leave your number and a short message and I will get back to you as soon as I can. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
