My Approach

I specialise in working with complex mental health symptoms through a three-tier treatment model, aiming to shift and relieve symptoms on a neurobiological and somatic level.

In sessions I focus on the need to establish safety and stability in your nervous system supported through developing skills in psychoeducation, mindfulness and increasing upon your capacity to become more embodied. You will be central to forming the rhythm and pace of your recovery in collaboration with my expertise.

When you are ready and with increasing capacity we can begin to focus more on processing the emotional and somatic based remnants of your past experiences in the nervous system. Leading to fuller integration in your sense of self. With specific interest in ‘IFS for Trauma’, structural disassociation and treating psychosexual complexities. ​

In my practice I work with an integrative theoretical model woven alongside the use of the expressive arts. I facilitate connection with your visual, bodily, and relational experience, leading to a bespoke understanding of their therapeutic process. This creative therapeutic alliance is achieved using Sandtray, music, movement, sculpture, painting and drawing, poetry, creative writing, drama, play, and connection with nature. Use of the arts is optional.

In the past I have worked with complex behavioural needs and disabilities within adolescents and adults. And as a group facilitator in a Therapeutic Community for EUPD, on secure wards for elderly patients, supporting them to access connection with arts and self-expression. I have worked as a Trauma Therapist at Khiron Clinics since November 2018, and currently maintain a role as Primary Trauma Therapist. In this role I have been delivering 1to1s and a wide array of groups. With access to supervision from international leads in the trauma field, such as Deb Dana, Colleen De-Rango, Ditte Marcher and Janina Fisher. I will be leaving this place of work in September 2021, to establish my private practice full time. Where I welcome those seeking support for their mind-body health.

Working online and face to face, in Malmesbury

In sessions I focus on the need to establish safety and stability in your nervous system through developing skills in mindfulness, multidimensional thinking and feeling, psychoeducation and self-expression from the mind and body connection. Once stabilised we can begin to deepen into processing your wants, needs, dreams and fears. I have a wealth of experience working with those in crisis suffering from lack of focus, lack of mobility, stuck in survival responses and loss of hope. With my aptitude to retain regulation and vision I help guide others into theirs. We each need vision, without vision autonomy becomes illusive, and we merge facelessly into a system we can then result in resenting as we have been unable to individuate into our own potential. Developing upon self-expression, communication skills and self-regulation will aid the development of this individuation and development of trust in self and others. In my practice I work with an integrative theoretical model woven alongside the use of the expressive arts. It is in my best interest to support you to begin envisaging how you would like to use the resources available to you in the therapeutic relationship to begin transforming your life.
With specific interest in ‘IFS’, parts, and systemic constellations my approach is to bring a micro and macro aid to the challenges you are facing. I facilitate connection with an individual’s visual, bodily, and relational experience, leading to a bespoke understanding of their therapeutic process.
