About Me
I originally come from a catering background. I had a work colleague Vicky, who trained me as a manager for a well-known coffee chain.
I remember her saying “I think you would make a really good counsellor because you look at things from a rounded perspective.”
So I decided to complete an introductory counselling course and so began my journey to becoming a qualified counsellor.
