My approach is integrative which means I create personalised treatment plans to best meet the unique needs of each client. My aim is provide a safe, non-judgemental space for children, young people and adults to express themselves, explore and process emotions and develop the tools needed to navigate life's challenges. I work collaboratively with all my clients, recognising that they are the experts on their own experiences, to help build resilience and achieve their therapeutic goals.
If you only take away one thing: I put my clients at the heart of everything I do. I am deeply passionate about making all my clients feel comfortable and safe as I know that the work starts when you don’t feel like strangers anymore.
I currently work in private practice with adults, young people, children and families. However, I have previous experience working in the NHS, charities, and the education system since 2006. My extensive training as an integrative child and adolescent psychotherapist and my background in CBT and couples counselling means I work with clients aged 5 years old to adults.
I approach my work in a way that puts my clients at the centre of everything. It is vital that you feel safe in the space and for my method of working with you to resonate. I therefore don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach and understand that talking therapy may not suit everyone. I believe in using the therapeutic value of the arts and often pull-on art, music and sand as some of the ways of exploring difficult emotions that can be challenging to verbally communicate.
As an integrative psychotherapist, my approach is client-centred, which means I work in a bespoke way to suit you, your child or family, and I offer a free initial consultation where I am happy to discuss your needs in more detail.
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.
