I have an enhanced police disclosure certificate, together with original certificates of my qualifications. I also have references from all the employments where I have worked as a counsellor, testifying to my conscientious work. I will gladly produce any of these upon request.

I currently work for many agencies as an Associate counsellor doing employee-assistance counselling. One of these is for local government. All of these agencies have checked my qualifications and requested references. Some have visited my premises to check the suitability and safety of the room and facilities.

Due to the confidential nature of counselling it is not possible to give the names of past clients. However I have received many thank- you letters and words of praise from clients, regarding how much the counselling has helped them.

Examples of some comments include:

“The counselling was a very positive experience”.
“I have found your service really professional”.
“I feel I have put the past to rest”.
“It has been so helpful to speak to someone who understands”.
“I’ve been able to tell you things I could not tell family and friends”.
“I felt I could really trust you”.
“You helped me recognise things which I hadn’t done before”.
“The room is really comfortable, not clinical”.
“I feel stronger now thanks to the counselling”.
“My life has changed for the better”.
“I thought I would have nothing to say, but I’ve been surprised how easy it has been to talk to you”.
“I would be happy to recommend you to other people”.
“I feel much happier now and more in control”.

If any past clients would like me to include their comments, without naming them, please email via the “Contact me” page.
