My Approach

I offer a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space grounded in relational and trauma-informed practice. I provide a space to reflect and express feelings that may until now have been kept hidden.
People come to therapy for many reasons, including relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, grief, bereavement, low self-esteem, trauma, or feeling stuck with the way things are. Therapy can help you understand both the symptoms you may be experiencing and the underlying causes, fostering self-awareness and personal growth.
The foundation of all good therapy is the relationship between client and therapist, and I aim to provide a space in which you can express yourself fully and authentically, to identify and articulate what has not been working for you within yourself and your life and develop ways of coping with both current and future challenges. 
I use a range of approaches in my work; psychodynamic, attachment, humanistic and EMDR, which allows me to tailor the therapy to your individual needs.
As a trained art therapist, I offer creative ways to explore feelings that may be difficult to express in words. There is no expectation of artistic skill, it is simply another way to understand and communicate your inner experiences.

Special Interests

Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.

Art therapy is particularly effective for individuals facing the end of life, or those grieving a profound loss, art offers a non-verbal outlet for emotions that may be too complex, confusing, or overwhelming to express in words. This creative process can be especially valuable when traditional forms of communication fall short. Pain is something we instinctively resist. Yet in art therapy, the aim is not to erase or avoid this pain, but to create a safe, supportive space where individuals can gently confront it. Through creative expression, what is internal and hidden can be externalised - given form, shape, and voice. This allows people to explore their feelings with curiosity and compassion alongside the therapeutic presence of another person, fostering moments of connection and meaning.
I offer Eye Movement Reprocessing and Desensitization. EMDR is a therapy that helps people heal from distressing or traumatic experiences. Many of us go through events that continue to affect how we feel, think, or respond long after they’ve happened. EMDR has been shown to be highly effective in helping people process these experiences. While the memories themselves remain, they typically lose their emotional intensity and no longer feel overwhelming or disruptive. A key part of EMDR is maintaining a sense of safety in the present while gently focusing on past experiences. Using bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements, gentle tapping, or sounds), we target the negative memories so they can be desensitised and reprocessed in a way that feels more manageable to your life today. Treatment begins with an initial assessment to ensure EMDR is a good fit and that you feel prepared and supported. Some people notice positive changes after just a few sessions, while others may need more time. EMDR can also be used alongside other forms of therapy.
