About the Therapist
I chose to focus my training on the person-centred approach to therapy, which accords most closely with my own experience and philosophy. This approach provides a nurturing environment which will allow you to fully access your own powerful resources. I believe that working in this way will facilitate the development of greater self-awareness and provide you with the capacity to address your difficulties. It can open doors and make growth possible. As a person-centred counsellor, I will help you look at and work through the issues that are troubling you. I won't push or direct you: the person-centred approach is based on the belief that each of us has the ability to live our lives to our full potential. My aim will be to help unlock that potential within you.

During my counselling training, I went to work for Outcome, which was part of Islington MIND. I also had a placement at Antidote, which was London's only targeted lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender drug and alcohol service and is one of the services provided by London Friend.
