01525 405254If you live in Bedfordshire or in neighbouring Milton Keynes and are looking for a personal counsellor I may be able to help.
I am an experienced Emotional Therapist and offer support for stress, anxiety and panic attacks, depression, anger, low self esteem, bereavement, relationship problems, self harm including eating disorders, obsessive compulsive behaviour, and addictions.
As a Counselling model Emotional Therapy (ET) acknowledges the heart as well as the mind and while it has similarities with conventional counselling, there are also important differences. It holds the holistic premise that the spirit is of equal importance to the mind and body. A therapist will assist and support clients by acknowledging, accepting and dealing with suppressed emotional pain in a healthy, integrated way.
I am a member of the following organisations
FET - The Foundation for Emotional Therapy
BCMA - The British Complementary Medicine Association
NFSH - The Healing Trust
My career has largely been spent in the high stress environment of television. The decision to retrain as a counsellor came out of my own personal experience of anxiety and depression, so as a Therapist I can relate very well to any underlying feelings there may be.
After completing an NHS course in anxiety management I subsequently became a telephone counsellor for First Steps to Freedom offering support to those who suffer from general anxiety, panic attacks, depression, phobias and OCD. This led me to train in Emotional Therapy and subsequently in Herbal Medicine and as a Healer. My medical training has been similar to that of a GP and I have recently worked as part of the team in an NHS surgery.
My practice in Lidlington is convenient for all the surrounding villages including Flitwick, Ampthill and Woburn and is also easily accessible from Bedford, Milton Keynes, Dunstable & Luton. Lidlington is served by London Midland trains. For details of the service from Bedford to Bletchley (connecting to Milton Keynes) visit
