Following early retirement from professional sport, I began a career in the education sector where I have been a qualified teacher for the last fourteen years.

With over 20 years practice as a midwife, birth trauma therapist and IVF Counsellor, I am passionate about giving effective help to women and men experiencing anxiety and grief from infertility, pregnancy loss and birth-related trauma.

HG therapy can make a huge difference to people who are struggling through this fundamental life stage,

NHS referrals and private clients are accepted.

Video consultations are available - in-person appointments are available if local.

Do you feel anxious or depressed or possibly overwhelmed? Does it sometimes feel like something is missing or the challenges of life are getting you down?

I am a human givens therapist with a background as an NHS midwife, private antenatal educator and hypnobirthing practitioner. I have specialized in birth trauma, depression and anxiety for parents and healthcare professionals, but am currently expanding to specialize in addiction and bereavement. I will take NHS referrals and am based in Horsham for face to face clients, however, I will also accept online clients. I also have an enhanced DBS which allows me to work with adolescents.

I'm a qualified and registered Psychotherapist living and working in Jersey, Channel Islands.

I know how daunting it can seem at times to move forward in life when you are feeling stuck and overwhelmed.

My practice is now entirely online, and therapy sessions can be booked UK-wide on Zoom, Skype, Facetime or the telephone.

The most common reasons clients seek help from me are related to stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationships, and work-related issues.

Val brings a wealth of experience having worked as a Human Givens Practitioner since 2002 and before that working for many years in mental health rehabilitation, with some of that time in a managem

I find the Human Givens approach to be helpful to a wide variety of people in different situations and most find help within a very few sessions.
