Psychotherapist and Counsellor

I am an experienced psychotherapist and counsellor, with over 19 years post-qualifying experience. I have an integrative transpersonal training, with an emphasis on working holistically and soulfully to support you to navigate the difficulties of life. I will work with you to deepen your understanding of how you live your life now, and how that may have been impacted by events in earlier life, with an emphasis on developing self-compassion towards and integration of all parts of yourself. We can explore both your relationship with others and your relationship with yourself to understand how parts of you might be more present than others, and to unpack internalised attitudes to what is acceptable. Together, we can make time and space for your story and your wounds, to allow for value and healing to grow from compassionate caring.

I offer face-to-face and online sessions. I will listen to what you choose to bring and invite you to reflect more deeply on aspects which feel they might need more exploration. I may invite you to engage in imagination exercises, if this is something you feel comfortable with. I will always adapt my practice to your needs and be guided by your pace.

I can work with specific issues, for example around grief and loss, depression and anxiety, childhood trauma and/or abuse, disordered eating and body image, as well as wider existential issues around meaning and purpose. I am qualified and experienced in offering therapy to counsellors and psychotherapists in training from a range of humanistic, integrative and arts-based trainings. I have undertaken additional training around working with neuro-divergence and am a neuro-affirmative practitioner.

I also offer supervision to qualified psychotherapists, counsellors and mental health and wellbeing practitioners. I am a registered member of both UKCP and BACP and abide by their codes of ethics.
