Welcome
I am a NCPS accredited counsellor and AOR registered reflexologist based near Epsom in Surrey.
After making TV shows for the BBC for 20 years, I decided to re-train in reflexology in 2008 after experiencing it for myself. I was intrigued by how the reflexologist could tell so much about me just from touching my feet and decided this was something I wanted to learn more about.
It felt like a natural progression to train as a counsellor, making use of the relational experience I’d gained from working with my reflexology clients. I treat each client as an individual, and tailor each treatment to their specific needs. All information disclosed is confidential.
I have a Wellbeing dog called Bella and we’ve spent lots of time visiting primary schools and care homes and she enjoys being part of my work. She especially loves all the attention she gets! You can request to include Bella in your session.
I am proud to be an ally to the LGBTQ+ community offering a safe, inclusive space for everyone.
Reflexology
I have a very unique style of reflexology which I’ve developed over many years since I was first introduced to the technique of releasing energy in the feet in 2010. The process is best described as me “plugging in” and releasing stress from specific reflexes which can feel to the client like a sensation of heat, chills, tingles, twitches or a magnetic pull. Clients report that it really helps them feel better and less stressed.
Clients come to me with a wide variety of health issues from digestive disorders and anxiety to back pain and stress. We work together to try and improve the body’s natural balance.
And by the way, you don’t have to be feeling poorly to benefit from reflexology. I have many clients who come to put their feet up, relax and restore their body’s natural balance.
Counselling
Everything starts with the relationship between the counsellor and the client. I encourage my clients to be themselves, warts and all. None of us are perfect. Nobody has all the answers. I want my clients to see and feel that they are accepted when they are their true authentic selves.
I chose to be a pluralistic counsellor because it gives me the flexibility to draw from various therapeutic approaches to create a tailored experience that is as unique as you are. I volunteer with the NHS Youth Counselling Service and from this I’ve gained experience in working with the kinds of issues that are all around young people today.
I love visiting Nonsuch Park and this has led me to offer clients Walk and Talk therapy. It’s a more informal style of counselling, and is a great way to explore our feelings as we walk side by side in nature.
I support young people, adults and couples exploring experiences, finding clarity and building resilience. Whether you’re struggling to manage relationships, having anxious thoughts, coping with grief or feeling isolated in your fertility journey, our work together can help you reconnect with your strength and sense of self.
