MEET YOUR COACH

As well as my passion for coaching, I am also a qualified counsellor, working with the humanistic, person centred model, specialising in bereavement.  In addition, I also work with clients on behalf of the NHS, treating conditions such as depression, anxiety, panic disorder and OCD, using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.  I am a member of both BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy), and  BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy).

I am also a teacher of counselling skills, and I work with students at Wirral Metropolitan College, teaching counselling skills and theory, and supporting them towards meeting their goals of becoming qualified counsellors themselves.  This is very rewarding work, it is beautiful to watch people grow, and reach personal fulfilment.

In other areas of my life, I enjoy spending quality time with my 12 year old son, that is when I can tear his attention away from MSN, and his obsession with Football Manager! We also spend many a happy hour following his favourite football team – TRANMERE ROVERS (Super White Army!) all around the country.

Due to all of the above life is rarely quiet. But I do walk my talk and create opportunities to relax! I can be found in many a wine bar sampling the delights of New World wine. At even quieter moments, one of my secret pleasures is sitting in Borders, drinking really expensive coffee, reading their books for free, and having priceless moments just watching the world go by. 

Some of my more maddening qualities are my eternal quest for finding meaning in life, my stubbornness, and my determination to succeed; all qualities which are completely beneficial to coaching clients, but quite infuriating for those who have to put up with me every day…
