My Approach

For Individuals:

I offer individual psychotherapy to people of all ages, genders, sexualities, cultural backgrounds and other markers of difference. I hold a flexible approach to therapy, as aligned with systemic psychotherapy. Frequency of the sessions range from weekly to fortnightly or in some cases less frequent sessions, depending on the presenting difficulties. I offer face-to-face and online sessions. Individual therapy can help with a range of dilemmas and creates change by providing you with effective tools in managing difficult feelings, building self-awareness and increasing confidence in your ability.


For Relationships:

As a Systemic Psychotherapist, I am trained to work with relationships. Therefore, my relational work includes couples, open, polyamorous and non-monogamous relationships. Relationship counselling offers a safe and structured environment to discuss challenging topics that can create emotional distress for the relationship. Sessions can be offered face-to-face or online and would be held every 1-2 weeks depending on the goals.


For Families:

Systemic psychotherapy is the only type of therapy that offers a space for the whole family. Working flexibly, this can range from whole family, individual or parent only sessions. Each family is unique and my work involves your help in understanding the dynamics, challenges and strengths that are individual to you. As a systemic psychotherapist, I am taught, with your openness and guidance, to find ways to create change that are distinct to your family. Sessions range from short term (12-16 sessions) to ongoing depending on the goals. Usually, family sessions would be held every 2-3 weeks. I offer face-to-face and online sessions. Remote working for families can be from different locations.


For Organisations, I offer three approaches:

1. I offer systemic psychotherapy to employees, in group or individual therapy, to co-create effective working relationships to maximise employee satisfaction and productivity, if difficulties have arisen.

2. I offer systemic training to organisations to discover and apply systemic strategies that are uniquely suited to address its challenges. I offer a range of session formats, including hourly, half-day, or full-day options.

3. ​I offer systemic training to hospices and charities working with bereavement. This involves half day or full day training workshops to employees and volunteers looking to expand their systemic knowledge and skills in offering therapeutic services to individuals, adult relationships and families who are bereaved or facing end of life.

About Me

Whatever has brought you here can be resolved by reaching out for further support. The services I offer are unique to you. I hold a safe, non-judgmental and empathetic space. Whether you are an individual, family or in an adult relationship seeking therapeutic support, I am trained to work alongside you to understand what is needed for change to begin to take place. This involves considering your strengths, developing self-awareness and understanding the dynamics of the system or environment you are in. Together, with curiosity, openness and gentle exploration, we can create change.
