Some of our past training themes have explored loneliness, disability, dying, money in the counselling relationship, sleep disorders, autism, safeguarding and trauma. All our training topics are chosen for their relevance to our client group. The feedback we have received from participants has been consistently positive.

She is a qualified counsellor, psychotherapist and supervisor working in private practice as well as supervising in several voluntary counselling organisations.
