Sylvia is a very experienced broadcaster and started her media journey by speaking on behalf of the Samaritans on Jeremy Beadle’s phone-in on LBC Radio. She was also a Guest Speaker for Samaritans on the then Thames TV Social Action Broadcasting programme, “HELP”.
Sylvia presented her own two-hour phone-in programme on LBC Radio (now London’s Biggest Conversation), five nights a week, from 8 till 10 p.m., dealing with personal, sexual, emotional and workplace problems.
For some eight years, she was also the guest counsellor on LBC Radio with top presenters such as Steve Allen, Clive Bull, Robbie Vincent, David Luddy and others. She attracted a considerable following of listeners who rang in with their problems, and thousands who tuned in to hear her distinctive voice and sound advice.
In the days of Live TV’s Sex Show, Sylvia was the regular weekly Sex and Relationship Therapist, answering sex and relationship problems on air.
Sylvia has also been a specialist guest on numerous live TV programmes including Central Weekend’s Talk Show, Kilroy, The Time & Place, Thames TV Help Programme.
