My Approach

Culturally sensitive, respectful, calm, compassionate; strengths based; systemic, relational, collaborative.

About Me

I am a qualified Family & Systemic Psychotherapist with over 35 years experience in the NHS, private, statutory and voluntary sectors. I am currently working solely in private practice as a psychotherapist, supervisor and trainer.
My previous professional roles include: Consultant Family Therapist with the Tavistock & Portman NHS Trust in Leeds; Locality Manager of Tier 3 Specialist CAMHS; team leader of a specialist CAMHS service for children with learning disabilities/autism and their families; residential based support for young people who are looked after.
I have worked with a range of needs and challenges that people face across the life cycle, and have a particular interest in working collaboratively to promote marginalised voices and diverse identities.
I am able to offer sessions remotely, or can alternatively offer a safe and comfortable therapy space at my consultation room in the Yorkshire Dales.
