I have 20 years of experience as an Integrative, BAME counsellor/psychotherapist. Throughout my career, I have provided over 8500 hours of counselling sessions, working with Children, Adolescents and Adults in Higher Education, the Third Sector/NGOs, and Tier 3 services across the United Kingdom. I utilise clinical tools derived mainly from Integrative, Gestalt, Transactional Analysis, Psychodynamic, Creative, Solution Focused Brief Therapy and Person-Centred counselling to address a wide array of difficulties. I have a clinical interest in Boarding School Survivors (Also known as Privileged Abandonment) and Adult Children of Narcissistic Parents. My passion for counselling is to bring transformational change in clients through a relationship based on building safety and trust. I believe this is the foundation of connecting with the self and rediscovering true passion and purpose. Psychoeducation is an integral part of my practice, as I believe in empowering individuals with knowledge, not otherwise accessible through mainstream means. My relevant qualifications are: • BSc (Hons) in Psychological Counselling and Guidance (2006). • MSc in Child and Adolescent Mental Health (2009). • Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling Supervision (2023). After half a decade of full-time service at the University of Edinburgh, I am pleased to announce that I am now offering daytime appointments for counselling and clinical supervision. Evening and weekend sessions will continue as usual.
