In light of Boris Johnson's announcement on Saturday 31st October regarding COVID Cases rising and the need for a second lock down for four weeks, my Governing body, BACP, has advised against face to face sessions if other options available. Therefore as from Thursday 5th November to Decmeber 2nd, I will only be offering telephone and video counselling. Indoor face to face sessions have been temporarily put on hold while we are in a national Lockdown.
Please keep safe and do not hesitate to contact me if you need support in these challenging times. Help is available.

COVID19 As lockdown is reducing I am pleased to announce that I am looking into how I can offer face to face sessions safely to those clients who are unable to have on line or telephone sessions. I am hoping to start offering face to face sessions in July 2020 I will be adhering to the latest Government, Health & Safety England and NHS Guidelines, ensuring everyone's safety is paramount. I am in the process of writing up a new contract and carrying out a risk assesment for one to one counselling. If you would like to find out more please feel free to email me at [email protected] or call me on 01283 533646 or mobile 07541 574010 |

 Feeling very proud and honoured to have passed my training on infant
and pregnancy loss, which means I am now Accredited through Infant Loss
Training in helping those who have been bereaved losing a baby, whatever
age. It saddens me there is little support for parents and
families who have experienced such a devastating loss. I sincerely hope I
can help in some way... |
