What do you love most about your job?
I love working with people and helping them to find there way through difficult times in their lives. I am passionate about the work I do and have done for the past 40 years. I find this work so humbling and so rewarding. I have been so privileged to sit with others and for them to allow me to listen to their thoughts , acknowledge their feelings during the most vulnerable times in their lives.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was offered a new post in the NHS as a Supervisory Clinician doing Mental Health assessments having been employed as a Psychotherapist previously. I wanted to continue my work as a. Therapist and decided to start my own business so that I could continue to do the work that I love and to continue to utilise my experience and skills. I now work 2 days a week for the NHS and offer private therapy on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday mornings.
