Integrative, Mind-body Connection
My core training is in Person-Centred & Experiential Psychotherapy however I work in an integrative manner, drawing from a range of interventions to help foster self-awareness and action meaningful change. Prior to training in psychotherapy, I worked in Health & Social Care, primarily in drug and alcohol recovery and mental health. I have also worked in a children’s home supporting young people who experienced developmental trauma.
I specialise in working with the mind-body connection, drawing from both eastern wisdom and contemporary research to support your healing and growth. I have worked with people experiencing addiction, burnout, complex trauma, relationship difficulties, Functional Neurological Disorder, and other health concerns. I have also supported people through grief, loss, and life transitions including divorce, becoming a parent and retirement.
Whilst it is essential to consider my qualifications and experience, having a sense of who I am as a person is equally important when deciding if I might be the right therapist for you. My approach is underpinned by person-centred and feminist values meaning that I respect and promote individuality and personal power whilst acknowledging that we are inter-connected and inter-dependent, and hold awareness of ways that modern living, societal systems and inequality can confound distress. Authenticity, integrity, and compassion are core personal values meaning that you can expect me to be honest, open, and genuinely invested in the relationship.

Therapy With You (What's It Like?)
My approach is underpinned by person-centred and feminist values meaning that I respect and promote individuality and personal power whilst acknowledging that we are inter-connected and inter-dependent, and hold awareness of ways that modern living, societal systems and inequality can confound distress. Authenticity, integrity, and compassion are core personal values meaning that you can expect me to be honest, open, and genuinely invested in the relationship.
I believe that developing self-awareness and compassion are instrumental in supporting healing and growth. By working together in a co-collaborative manner, I aim to help you develop a deeper understanding of yourself, the difficulties you are facing and how to move forward with your life in the way that is right for you.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should I pay for my sessions?
You should pay ahead of every session.
Is everything in therapy confidential?
Yes, confidentiality is a cornerstone of therapy. What you share in therapy is kept private, with some exceptions, such as if there’s a risk of harm to yourself or others.
What can I expect from my consultation call?
Your consultation call is an opportunity to get to know your chosen therapist and see if they feel like the right fit for you. During the call, you can share what’s bringing you to therapy, ask any questions you might have, and learn more about the therapist’s approach. It’s a relaxed, no-pressure conversation designed to help you feel comfortable and informed before deciding to move forward.
