"Helping people through times of difficulty is at the heart of what I do and who I am."
Having always worked within the caring professions, I have a deep desire to help facilitate change. As a counsellor, my aim is to help you explore whatever issue may be on your mind in a non-judgemental way.
I can help you reach your full potential in life and achieve a level of happiness you want. You may want to explore relationships, your work life, how to cope with your emotions or issues from your past. Indeed, any goals you may have can be explored in counselling.
When you need help, counselling can provide just the solution, I am a warm and empathic counsellor and I offer a safe place to meet that is confidential.
My work is with individuals and couples who come to counselling presenting with a variety of problems. I currently work for St Michael's Hospice in Hastings as a supervisor for their numerous counsellors.
​
I design and present workshops for counsellors, supervisors, students in training and organisations.
​
Previously I have worked for -
Clinical Supervisor for Macmillan at Eastbourne General Hospital for 14 years.
Clinical Supervisor for Buckswood School in Guestling, East Sussex.
The NHS in Hastings in local GP surgeries and for the NHS at Brighton General Hospital.
Hastings Community Alcohol Team (Action For Change) as a counsellor, supervisor and group worker for a number of years.

I have been seeing Jason since 2022, at first weekly and more recently on a 6 monthly top up session.
When I first started I found life was joyless and I had lost the ability to enjoy anything and find a positive attitude.
Right from the start of seeing Jason, I felt safe, understood and supported. Over the months I grew in confidence, gained a greater understanding of my own needs, put ideas into practice and gradually found my love of life again. I still use the strategies and notions that Jason suggested for me , and now return regularly to strengthen these practices.
I would highly recommend Jason as a counsellor.
