QUALIFICATIONS
Like most of my colleagues in the Psychotherapy/Counselling profession, I studied and trained for many years to become a Psychotherapist, through a series of classroom-based Diploma courses accredited by NCPS (PSA Approved), with multiple integrated clinical placements where I accrued hundreds of client hours, before being qualified and accredited to practice. I have also undertaken a significant amount of additional training to supplement my core training, with particular focus on issues related to neurodivergent conditions, addiction, trauma and issues related to the LGBTQIA+ lived-experience.
