My Approach

I've been working for almost 19 years now as a Gestalt Psychotherapist. I described my approach as relational and attuned in a body-centred, trauma-informed way. I also work with the voice and how you find your unique, authentic expression of yourself.

I attend to how you shape your understanding in the here and now experience;. I look out for any repeating patterns which are now no longer useful to you and may be creating difficulties in your relationships with others. I attend to the non-verbal and how you hold and embody your thoughts and emotions e.g. breathing patterns, muscle tension. I believe that the relationship between client and therapist is key to healing. As such I work relationally in a carefully attuned way. My approach is creative and experiential.

Special Interests

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.

EMDR works well online. I also offer attachment-informed EMDR which is very effective. I combine this with IFS and a body-centred approach. I also offer intensive EMDR sessions, 3 hours in length.
I am UKCP registered in supervision with a Diploma from the Relational Institute. I have extensive experience working with psychotherapy and counselling trainees as well as qualified practitioners. I have offered supervision to a number of charities.
