Hi, I’m Lynda, and despite being older in years, I’ve managed to keep my heart young and adventurous. A few years back, I found myself in a rut, bored with the monotony of life. So, I decided to embark on a new journey—I retrained as a counsellor.

I am a divorced parent of two grown-up children with a wealth of life experience behind me. For years, I successfully ran my own business, navigating the high and lows.  

My life at times was filled with uncertainty, and countless hurdles. So, I know exactly how it feels when life throws everything up into the air. But through counselling, I found my strength, my voice, and ultimately, my way out.  Inspired by the impact counselling had on my own life, I knew I wanted to pay it forward.

In addition to running my private practice, I’m proud to have been part of the Haven Survivors of Abuse network, where I offered support to survivors of domestic and sexual abuse. And to further hone my skills, I’ve trained at St Joseph’s Hospice, where I now serve as a member of the bereavement counselling team.

The satisfaction of helping others navigate through their own struggles is amazing. It’s not always easy, but it’s always worth it.
