I have been a counsellor for more than 20 years working with adults, children and young people in private practice and the Youth Enquiry Service (YES). I'm work in a person centred/integrative way and I'm also a qualified supervisor.

I'm non judgemental and will listen to you, respecting you and your choices. I can also offer relaxation techniques.

I previously worked for 14 years as a key worker with students with additional learning needs including Autism at Jersey's Haute Vallee, Les Quennevais and Grainville schools. This involved working closely with support staff and families. I was also an outreach worker for Jersey's Women Refuge.

I come from a care background working for many years with islanders with a variety of conditions including MS, Alzheimer's and terminal illnesses through Family Nursing & Home Care, Jersey Cheshire Home, the Jeanne Jugan Residence and Guardian Nursing Home.

If you'd like to find out anything more, please don't hesitate to contact me.
