I am trained in and draw from various different therapeutic approaches, believing that an eclectic way of working is best suited to meet the different individual's wants and needs.

I have substantial experience as a counsellor, both in the voluntary sector as well as in private practice.

My background is in Mental Health, and I have been working with Survivors of Childhood Sexual Abuse and Survivors of the Mental Health System for over 15 years in both Austria, USA and Manchester, UK.

In the past I have volunteered as a Counsellor and on the Help-line for the Gay and Lesbian Foundation and the Manchester Rape and Sexual Abuse Counselling Service.

I work according to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy.

I positively welcome members from diverse cultural and ethnical backgrounds, of different sexual orientations, abilities, ages and gender.
