Insightfulness - Counselling & Psychotherapy

I have lived in West Yorkshire since 1992. I qualified as a dietitian and have worked in the NHS from 1988-2015. First working in Sheffield, then Manchester and finally settled in West Yorkshire, I completed my training as a psychotherapist in 2013. Further training in Mindfulness began in 2014. I believe the mind and body function together, not in isolation. Looking after each of these is important. In my counselling practice I help individuals to see themselves holistically, as a physical body, an active enquiring mind, and as a person in relationship with others. My experience and interests mean I am well equipped to counsel those with medical conditions and disordered eating behaviours. I believe many illnesses, either physical or mental are a result of no longer being able to cope effectively with the difficulties life has thrown at us.
