About Me

With a compassionate, flexible approach and a deep understanding of life’s complexities, I offer professional counselling for individuals and couples in and around Cobham, Surrey. Here’s a little more about me and how I work.

I have a flexible approach to meet  the differing needs of the people who come to see me. I work in a confidential and sensitive way that is open, relaxed and supportive.

​

I will offer you an Initial Consultation where you can tell me your story and we can talk about your hopes and aspirations. If you decide that you would like to continue, we can book an appointment for ongoing counselling. Generally, I see individuals and couples once a week for 60 minutes, though everyone is different and we will agree on what is most useful for you.  I strive to be as flexible as possible according to your particular needs and wishes.

I was a counsellor for Relate from 2008 - 2012 and have been in private practice since 2013. I am originally from Seattle, Washington, USA and have lived in London and Surrey for over 30 years. Prior to training to become a counsellor, I worked in the City for 14 years and have extensive knowledge and experience of life's pressures and complications. I am a mother of adult twins.
