I believe the therapeutic relationship is instrumental to affecting change for clients and that is why I offer a free 30 minutes for us to meet, for me to find out what brings you to therapy, what you wish to get from it, and this enables me to assess if I am the right therapist for you.
If we decide to work together, I work collaboratively to enable you to identify your strengths and areas for growth and build resilience to bring about change. Being an attuned therapist who not only seeks to understand someone's experience, I provide space for you to make sense of your problems and emotions without judgement, a confidential and empathic working relationship where you can talk about relationships, situations and experiences which you may not be able to discuss with anyone else.
I chose to train in Transactional Analysis (TA) because its philosophy resonated with me – ‘Everyone is OK, we all have the capacity to change, and we all decide our own destiny and these decisions can be changed’.
Prior to deciding to retrain as a psychotherapist I had a varied career and work history; seamstress, retail security management and investigation as well as hospitality work.
I work with adults, individuals or couples, working through emotional problems, mental health issues or behavioural changes.
Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.
