I began my professional career in the early 1970s when I trained to be a nurse, later becoming a nurse lecturer specialising in teaching counselling skills to qualified nurses. I became a United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) registered psychotherapist in 1992 and since then I have specialised in the field of trauma in the private sector and as a Trauma Support Manager and Counsellor with the London Underground Counselling and Trauma Service.
