1970s and 1980s and

events over the last twenty five years. She also worked in outdoor
activities centres and residential special schools in the 1970s and 1980s. She initially trained

for helping young people, working as an adventure education instructor in
residential special
schools and outdoor activity centres. In the late 1980s he developed a keen interest in
psychotherapy and trained as a Person-Centred Counsellor at the University
of Strathclyde, Glasgow

counsellor with children, adolescents, families, couples and groups. He
