My career has included working in Marketing and in Public Relations, as an Editor, a Copy-Writer and a Press Officer. I am also a qualified and experienced psychodynamic counsellor, working with individuals in my private practice, as well as providing counselling skills training. I have worked as a therapist with many different individuals in various settings including GP surgeries and with a local charity. These combined experiences give me a unique understanding of how writing can be used as a valuable tool for understanding ourselves in new and enlightening ways, increasing self-awareness through accessing aspects of ourselves that may otherwise stay hidden.
