Experience
I have been working as a counsellor in private practice since 2021, following work in an south London counselling agency and a sixth-form college.
I also work as a Personal and Professional Development group facilitator for counsellors in training, and have been a tutor on a counselling skills course.
Prior to counselling, I had a career as an international business consultant, working with government and corporate clients, with a focus on strategy and risk in China.
I have experience as a business owner, company director, and charity trustee.
Outside of work, I enjoy walking with my dog in nature, meditating, practicing tai chi and yoga, and running.
