My Approach

I consider myself an integrative transactional analyst psychotherapist. This means that I develop my approach to psychotherapy to meet the needs each person I am sitting with as I believe everyone is unique. My psychotherapy training in Transactional Analysis was robust. I trained as a Transactional Analyst psychotherapist (Certified Transactional Analyst in Psychotherapy)) and originally as a humanistic counsellor. I use a range of skills in my approach in the service of the person I am working with.
