Welcome to my home page. I work as a counsellor in the The Learning and Teaching Unit at City East Campus where I provide a range of services to students and staff, and to the University community as a whole.

I provide counselling and support to students who are dealing with a range of personal issues that may be impacting on their study. If you are a student who is experiencing worry or distress, I encourage you to speak with me before these difficulties impact on your study and health.

In addtion to individual counselling, my role includes the development and implementation of workshops for students, provision of training to staff, and the design and development of online resources.
