About me and my therapy practice

I aim to ensure that empathy, congruence and unconditional positive regard underpin all my client work. I am person-centred and client-led and work in a non-directive way. I work hard to create the therapeutic space clients can use as feels most useful to them, offering support and gentle challenge as needed. I have significant experience in providing employee assistance programme (EAP) time-limited work. I also have a wealth of experience working with students (university and college) and young people. I have specific experience of working with LGBT clients and am confident and knowledgeable in working with issues including: gender identity and expression, sexuality, sex (including kink and fetishes), multi-party relationships (more than 2 people) and non-monogamous or polyamorous relationships.
