At the beginning of my journey into helping people with special needs I was a support worker for 15 years.
For the past 11 years I have worked in the field of rehabilitation and reintegration from Drug and Alcohol abuse.
As a clinician I have delivered structured programs for Government Initiatives, Private Institutions and Community Based Organizations. Within the community setting I have worked to assist people to begin to live a life free from harmful patterns and negative thinking.
I have helped individuals and families to recover and address issues that have arisen in their lives. I have been doing voluntary counselling for three years, a few hours once a week, for a Mind and I do so because I believe in giving back to the community.
Another area, in which my expertise has been invaluable, is with clients who are facing diagnosis of terminal illness. Having worked within both residential and home settings, and working with clients who are faced with mortality, it has been invaluable for clients to discuss the painful journey of loss, allowing all involved to remain in the present.
As an individual who has undergone extensive surgery, I myself am fully aware of how challenging life can be when faced with a long-term illness. I believe that in my own life experiences, counselling has played an invaluable part in allowing me to live life to its fullest, and this also enables me to be fully empathic with clients.
I’m very experienced and highly trained individual over the years of and am delighted to add to my many qualifications a Diploma in Counselling.

Clients Questions and Answers
If you are thinking about counselling, you probably have a lot of questions, such as:
Who is counselling for?
Counselling is for anyone who is experiencing difficulties. It is for anyone who has suddenly found themselves feeling less confident than usual, who is facing new challenges in life, who feels the need to explore new ways to cope with life’s unexpected challenges. Lotus Counselling is a professional service, whose focused approach lies in proven therapeutic models; we have extensive experience and have helped many individuals and families embrace life’s challenges. Each client can expect an individual contract, which covers confidentiality, boundaries, our code of ethics, our working approach and a bespoke series of sessions to assist in achieving beneficial, realistic and practical outcomes for you.
Can I really talk to a stranger?
At different points in all our lives, we all need some support. Our old approach to life may no longer work for us, an issue may arise that we don’t feel comfortable talking to just anyone about, this is totally natural. Engaging with a counsellor for whatever reason, is definitely not something to be embarrassed or ashamed about, instead it shows signs of strength and courage. Talking about yourself to someone who is qualified and not involved in your life can be the first step in your healing process.
Will I be asked intrusive questions?
A counsellor does not intrude into areas, which the client is uncomfortable with. We follow a code of ethics, and feel in many respects the session is initially client-led.
What are the benefits of counselling?
There are numerous benefits to seeing a counsellor. With focused counselling old and unhelpful patterns can be recognised and strategies for healthier and more helpful patterns can be introduced.
Adjustment to new life situations can sometimes seem overwhelming, counselling can assist the client to establish new ways of thinking about their situation and deal more effectively with things as they arise.
