About Me

I am a trauma-informed, IFS-trained and Brainspotting practitioner (phase 3 ) using neuroscience to support healing in the aftermath of trauma. Through continued professional development courses, I have become accustomed to combining therapeutic methods, Body Psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems and Mindfulness to facilitate a reconnection with the body and self. I am committed to delivering such interventions in a compassionate, collaborative, and inclusive way.

As an ‘Integrative therapist’, I draw upon a combination of ideas and techniques, and I work with you as a whole person, paying attention to both the physical and psychological processes and how they are connecting together.
My training includes the Complex Trauma Certification Training Levels 1 & 2 (CCTP/ CCTP—II), Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment (TIST Level 3- Certified) by Janina Fisher, and the Safety & Stabilization Course (Complex Trauma Work during the 1st and 2nd phase of trauma recovery) with the Complex Trauma Institute.

My therapeutic work is grounded in Contemporary Psychotherapy. This integrative solution-focused model combines and utilises the main models of psychotherapy, from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to Humanistic and Existential theories, as well as Ericksonian hypnosis. I also hold a certificate as an NLP practitioner and a Narcissistic Abuse Specialist™.

My Approach

Talking is the key. Hearing oneself speak is a very important part of getting to know oneself and deepening the primary relationship – the one with ourselves.

Being heard and being witnessed is also a very important element in the healing process. Creating a safe, confidential space in which this process can be housed. I will invite you to tell your story, your sense of how you got where you are today, what you are feeling and what you don’t want to be feeling.

I will help you heal through relating, which means that I bring myself into the therapeutic relationship with you, making use of body and mind connections to explore the presenting complex issues and sharing my responses, thoughts and feelings with you.
