After working face to face for several years I undertook additional training in online counselling and have been working online since 2003.  I now offer counselling and supervision online only.  I hold the Diploma in Online Counselling (supervision) from  Counselling Online Ltd and validated by the Counselling and Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body.

My original counselling training was dual-theory encompassing both psychodynamic and person-centred ways of working.  After further training in other models I now describe myself as integrative, using various theoretical stances as appropriate for individual clients and problems.  

I firmly believe that, whatever approach  is used, the relationship between counsellor and client is the most important factor in determining the success of the  therapeutic work.  I respect and appreciate difference  in  race, religion and sexual orientation.  I am a gay-affirmative counsellor.
I have particular interest and  experience in working with people suffering from low self-esteem, with women who were sexually abused in childhood, and with problems within relationships.
