Manna House Counselling Service

I am an Anglican priest with over 35 years of experience in healthcare chaplaincy and in leadership roles in the Voluntary, Community, Faith, and Social Enterprise sector. I have training in group analytic therapy and systemic psychotherapy, as well as bereavement counselling. My passion is exploring the relationship between spirituality, theology and mental health.

My role involves carefully evaluating client needs to ensure tailored, effective support, while maintaining strong clinical governance across the service. I have over a decade of experience of working as a therapist in both private practice and within non-profit organizations, with children, young people and adults. My focus is on nurturing a safe respectful space, where meaningful therapeutic work can take place.

I am a qualified person-centred counsellor, training tutor and supervisor. I have experience of working with children and young people, as well as adults.  My specialist interests include cross cultural issues, Autism, ADHD, anxiety, bereavement, and self-care. My role is to design and deliver counselling courses to students, as well as CPD programmes to more experienced therapists.

Experienced in accounting, organizational administration and property management, I have worked for country estates, charities, business services and the manufacturing sector over many years.
