Clinical Specialties: Individual and Couples Counselling as well as counselling with parents and their children. I also work with gay and lesbian couples and individuals. Some of the many areas I have worked with include improving communication within relationships, sexual abuse, dealing with depression, sex addiction, improving self esteem and assertiveness and general personal development. My work with children and families includes dealing with general life situations such as marital break-ups and the effects on children, school difficulties, conflicts between parents and children and helping families deal with issues around Attention Deficit Disorder or ADHD and reading and writing difficulties.
Cross-Cultural Experience: Most of the couples counselling I have done has been with bi-national couples, which has given me considerable insight into the issues which often arise. Having moved to Germany myself some years ago, I still recall dealing with the feelings of isolation and struggling at times with some of the cultural differences, not to mention a new language. These experiences gave me personal insight into the difficulty of becoming established in a foreign country and they continue to influence my work as a counsellor. My German is now fluent and I work in both English and German languages.
