My Approach

My approach is relational, experiential and trauma informed. I draw from Person-Centred, CBT, Psychodynamic, Attachment, Transpersonal, Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused approaches, adapting therapy to the individual rather than expecting the individual to fit one model.
I believe therapy begins with feeling genuinely heard and understood. I aim to create a safe, compassionate and non-judgemental space where clients can explore their experiences at their own pace, develop greater self-awareness, find ways of coping with current difficulties and move towards meaningful change.

About Me

I work with people when life feels difficult to navigate, offering a safe space for one to understand what they are going through, reconnect with themselves and move towards meaningful change.
I do this, by offering compassionate, integrative psychotherapy and counselling to adults experiencing significant life changes.

With more than 25 years' experience across NHS, hospice, cancer care, EAP, trauma and private-practice settings, I bring extensive experience of supporting people through some of the most challenging periods of their lives. My specialist experience includes childhood trauma and abuse, sexual assault, domestic violence, bereavement, living with cancer or HIV, relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression and loss of purpose or meaning.

Alongside my therapy practice, I provide clinical supervision and support counsellors and psychotherapists to reflect on their client work, develop their professional practice, consider ethical and clinical issues, and make meaningful links between theory and practice.

My intention is to offer a grounded, compassionate presence while helping clients and supervisees develop greater clarity, confidence and choice.
