Through my interest in people. I am motivated to help people have a better life.
I am a former HR director from the software industry, so understand the effects of stress and anxiety and what it can do to people. I developed an interest in counselling after my mother died and thought my life was not worth living. I started training 16 years ago and have been providing counselling services for many years.
I was Chair of Cruse Bereavement for West Berkshire for more than 2 years also a Counsellor and a Counselling Supervisor. I have carried out 1000's of hours of therapy to bereaved clients.
I can’t say I have seen it all, because I haven’t but I do have many years of experience and training that helps me provide counselling services.
I work with young and old, there is no magic formula to the work as emotions may vary from loss and frustration through to anger or total despair.
