My Approach

I believe we evolve through relationship. It is in relationship that we learn how safe it is to be in the world, what we can expect from others, and how to relate to our own needs. Many of us have practiced particular ways of being and forgotten or not developed others. We may be ignoring, or have never learnt to pay attention to, our internal body signals. In my work I seek to tune into these messages and use them as guides.

I incorporate several schools of psychotherapy (the humanistic, existential, psychodynamic and somatic) into the way I work. Each of us is unique, so I tailor my approach to meet each client's or relationship's needs bringing what I have learned as a psychotherapist, trainer, mediator and artist to each session.

I believe that the therapeutic relationship offers us a chance to discover, not just who you’ve become, but also space to try out new ways of being.

About Me

I am a psychotherapist and relationship counsellor. I hold:
-an MA in Integrative Psychotherapy and Counselling
-a Diploma in Integrative Counselling
-a Certificate in Working with Couples & Other Relationships
-a Diploma in Embodied Relational Therapy and
-an MA in Graduate Liberal Studies.

My training is integrative and relational. ‘Integrative’ means that I incorporate understandings drawn from several schools of psychotherapy (the humanistic, existential, psychodynamic and somatic) into the way I work. I believe that each one of us is unique, so I tailor my approach to meet your individual needs.

Working ‘relationally’ reflects my belief that we evolve through relationship. It is in relationship that we learn how safe it is to be in the world, what we can expect from others, and how to relate to our own needs. The therapeutic relationship offers us a chance to discover not just who you’ve become, but a safe space to try out new ways of being.

Before becoming a psychotherapist I worked in the Arts, Educational and Charitable sectors, and once ran my own jewellery studio. I have lived in several countries, am of dual heritage and bring all these diverse experiences to the way I work. I am deeply committed to honouring the diversity of humankind. I offer an LGBTQ inclusive space.
