About
Working in the challenging field of addiction for over 20 years and successfully counselling many people into recovery, I passionately believe that individuals have the inner resources to overcome their addictions and dependencies. I have not only witnessed this in others but have also overcome my own drug and alcohol addiction. Having underwent 6 months intensive rehab, I'm now over 24 years clean and sober and consider my main strength as working with a deep passion and belief.
My own life experience, particularly around recovery gives me a unique perspective and a greater empathy with my clients. Coming from a non-judgemental approach, I give encouragement but also gently challenge clients along the way for developmental change and personal growth.
Changing unwanted behaviour can be difficult at the best of times, but when alcohol and other substances are thrown into the mix, it can get very difficult to overcome. A wonderful saying in the rooms is: Only you alone can do it, but you can't do it alone. And that's where I step in.
