I used to feel a little confused about being a human. I thought we were supposed to be one person. So how come I felt pulled in so many different directions? How come sometimes I wanted one thing and then later on I was attracted to another thing that was almost opposite? And why could I never decide what to eat in a restaurant?

When I first heard about Voice Dialogue I was really intrigued. Could this idea of different parts of self explain some of my confusion? Was there more to me than I thought there was? With my first session I was hooked. I really enjoyed and looked forward to my sessions! My internal voices, my inner selves, had finally found a place to express themselves! What an incredible sense of liberation!

Voice Dialogue seems to be something that many people just "get". The idea of different inner selves makes sense, and it is liberating, as we find we can have more choice in our life. Some (like me!) rejoice to find that they’re not crazy after all, as they come to understand and embrace their primary selves and the opposing (disowned) selves within them. As we understand more about our inner selves we also understand the selves in others. Through understanding how we bond with others, we can discover how to be happier in our working and personal relationships.

Expressing my singer, writer and musician selves has been a big part of my life. I love to help others with their creative process and to understand and reduce the impact of the selves (such as the Critic and the Perfectionist) that disrupt that creativity!

I’ve been a Counsellor for 15 years, assisting clients with many different life challenges. As a Counselling Psychologist, I use an integrative approach, drawing upon the wisdom of various therapeutic approaches. I have found that Voice Dialogue is a wonderful counselling tool.

I am available to work with individuals and couples in person, by phone or through the internet. I run groups in the UK and I am happy to come to work with you at your invitation!

Through years of exploration of consciousness, I've had many opportunities to be the client and to receive counselling. I believe this experience enhances the counselling and group work I offer to others. I’ve had my share of difficulties in this life. It's rare that we pass through life without challenges. However, I believe that when we receive caring support, even challenging experiences can ultimately enrich our lives by increasing our understanding and awareness.
