What I bring to our work together...
Embedded Files
I have worked within both the Voluntary and Statutory sectors for over 30 years, developing a wide range of skills and experience I hope to bring to our work together.
As well as my counselling training and experience, I bring a background in Community Education for almost 25 years. This has developed my experience and skills in subjects such as parenting strategies, family work, risk management and safeguarding issues.
