Professional Counselling Services

I offer person-centred counselling from my friendly, confidential practice in Ferndown, Dorset.
My practice welcomes adults, young people and couples seeking both short-term and long-term counselling. 

My counselling training incorporates specialised work with children, young adults and teenagers, with particular focus on cognitive, emotional and behavioural development. This foundation is supported by over twenty years of practical experience within educational settings, providing targeted support for children aged five to twelve years with behavioural and inclusion requirements.

My additional training includes fourteen years of clinical experience within the NHS, delivering specialised counselling services to patients requiring emotional support following difficult pregnancy-related diagnoses. This included supporting individuals experiencing miscarriage, termination, stillbirth, or those navigating complex pregnancy decision-making processes.

My counselling approach emphasises confidential, non-judgmental exploration of thoughts and feelings, enabling clients to develop their own understanding and make informed personal choices. Support is provided throughout the therapeutic process, respecting individual autonomy whilst offering professional guidance to facilitate positive outcomes.

All counselling sessions are conducted within a secure, confidential environment that prioritises client privacy and comfort. My practice maintains professional standards consistent with recognised counselling frameworks and ethical guidelines from the BACP and NCS.
