I would like to give you some information about me.  If you read something which resonates and you would like us to meet, I hope you will get in touch.

As a primary teacher I wanted to give children the opportunity to find the words to express how they were feeling and to encourage their self-confidence and the growth of their self-esteem.  I wanted relationships, learning, and curiosity about life to be a positive experience. 

I encouraged children to express their feelings and their needs, using the Non-Violent Communication approach, which is based on emotional literacy.

During a difficult period in my life I began therapy where I could talk, explore my emotions and begin to understand my self.  I read ‘Psychosynthesis in Education’ by Diana Whitmore which helped me to look inwards deeply.  Having experienced the enabling power of therapy to change, I trained in Psychosynthesis in London.

In counselling and psychotherapy I offer a gentle presence to support you to find your own path through ways which may previously have seemed limited or blocked.  By creating an empathic space I hope each client has the opportunity for change.

Having worked for many years in a voluntary setting, I now see clients privately in Taunton, Somerset

I am a mother and a grandmother.
