PRESENTATION

I studied Psychology in the Nineties before embarking on a journey of travels, moving to New Zealand and attending to family commitments. 

I am married and have two children, a teenager and a pre-teen. I have always had a strong interest in working with children and families .

A few years ago I studied generic counselling before moving back to Psychology. My work has since been enriched by both fields.
