Hello, I am Shirley, I am a qualified integrative counsellor/Therapist and a member of the BACP.

I have been a nurse for over 30 and I have supported patients and their families in a range of circumstances. I have been with them as they come to terms with illness and loss and watched moments of despair to joy.

My background in the nursing profession has given me first hand experience in a wide range of human emotions and responses. I understand that the pressures of life cause different reactions in different people resulting in a range of coping mechanisms. This means I am able to relate with and counsel different groups of people. I have worked with both Low cost and NHS Talking Therapies using the IAPTUS software.
