I’m Joey, a UKCP registered integrative counsellor and psychotherapist offering both short-term and open-ended therapy.
I originally trained as a journalist as I enjoyed creative writing and always had a natural interest in people.
After a while, I realised that it was a real blessing to listen to people’s stories, and that very often there was more beneath the surface. So, I trained as a psychotherapist whilst I was working as a communications professional as I wanted to further my exploration.
After doing a foundation course in counselling and psychotherapy at WPF Therapy and volunteering as a befriender and a mentor for different charities, I completed my psychotherapy training at the Metanoia Institute in West London. I’ve since worked for the NHS, a number of low cost therapy agencies and a charity supporting individuals who are impacted by cancer.
