Question and Answer...

Interview by Freda Pintor


5 November 2011






Who do you Counsel in your Private Practice?


I offer emotional support to Adolescents (Young Adults) and people with unresolved Adolescent (Young Adults) Issues.


Have you always worked in this field?


No, I used to be a lecturer in Higher and Further Education for over a decade and part of my responsibilities was being a pastoral carer. It became apparent that some of the students had issues that interfered with their ability to focus on their studies and so they struggled academically. I undertook some research and found  that some adolescents needed emotional support to achieve both academically and in their personal lives. I decided to change vocation and undertake the necessary training to be a Therapist. It was the best decision I ever made professionally!


What is your core belief?


I believe in the power of the attachment we have to our parents or principal carers  as children and the impact it has on us in later life.


Where do you work from?
I work from my Private Practice in Crouch End, North London. I am also an Associate Counsellor in a London University.


What do you like doing aside working?


I like cooking and baking to help me to relax after work. Naturally, I like eating what I cook or bake!
