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.

About Me

I am a trauma-informed, IFS-trained and Brainspotting practitioner (phase 2 ) 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) 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™.
