Consultancy
The modern counselling practice often extends beyond one to one therapy sessions, embracing a consultancy role to provide proactive, preventative, and systemic support.
This approach positions me not just as a therapist who helps individuals in times of crisis, but as a strategic partner who improves overall wellbeing and performance with groups, organisations, and in the Education sector such as schools, colleges and Universities.
​
Based on your organisation's needs, I can provide various mental health strategies that you can implement as part of your Wellbeing policies. I can also provide CPD days to your staff or your students.
