I began my journey as a therapist co-facilitating support group work with the mental health charity ‘Mind’ 15 years ago. After completing some training See Qualifications. I then worked as a counsellor for other charities such as As You Are, Cruse Bereavement Care, and Sussex Communities Development Association. I have worked with adults, groups, couples and young people (aged 13+). I then worked for the NHS in Sussex Partnership Foundation Trust as a psychological therapist in a Crisis Team.
