My Journey to now
Who am I?
My journey to now....
I was born in England and emigrated with my family from the UK in 2005. I have been living and working in New Zealand since this time. I am based in Palmerston North and work locally, nationally, and internationally either in-person or via zoom.
My family is hugely important in my life, and this has had a significant bearing on my passion for working with people and their relationships with self and others. I work from a collaborative position, being alongside you on your journey, whether it be personally or professionally.
I started my journey in New Zealand as a Registered Nurse and at that time had a basic Certificate in Counselling Skills from the UK. Over time, whilst continuing to work as a nurse, I expanded my learning in the counselling space, gaining qualifications and growing my counselling practice.
I have a passion for working with relationships and found a niche in couples counselling. When I started to learn and practice Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) I found my secure place and I wish this for the people I work with. This model of therapy has also expanded into the individual counselling I provide.
Alongside the counselling work I also continue to have a passion for supporting other professionals in their journeys and as such provide professional supervision for EFT practitioners, Counsellors, and other Health Professionals.
I hold professional qualifications and/or Certification in all the services I offer. Alongside, this I access my own supervision and continue to expand my learning to ensure I can provide the most effective counselling and supervision service I can.
