My Approach

My approach is warm, empathic and authentic. I believe it is my responsibility to support you to get to your own answers through the psychotherapy process. However, I do not take a ‘back seat’ in this process, I will work alongside you to help you make connections about your life, which in turn can lead to greater self awareness. I believe that it is through raising our self-awareness that we have the potential for growth and change.

Also trained as a yoga teacher, I am interested in a more embodied approach to therapy and when agreed, I integrate breath work, visualisation and meditation into therapy sessions.

About Me

I am a qualified psychotherapist offering face-to-face therapy to individuals on a short term and longer-term basis. I have practised in a variety of settings including the NHS, various counselling charities, The School of Life, and in private practice. I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP), the UK Council for Psychotherapists (UKCP) and a member of the Metanoia Institute.

Before training as a psychotherapist, I worked in the arts and charitable sectors, and it was my work for charities that first ignited an interest in becoming a therapist. I am passionate about psychotherapy and believe it assists us in better knowing who we are, what we need, and what we can do to bring about change.
