About me and my therapy practice

As an integrative counsellor I use various modalities.   These include person centred practice and emdr in relation to trauma.

The feedback I have received is that I am warm, approachable and skilled.

I have particular experience of working with people who have been impacted by cults or high demand groups, whether as members, relatives or friends of those who have.  This also relates to domestic coercive control.

I have presented for BACP on this issue, and also co-authored an article in Therapy Today.

Practice description

I have worked as a private practitioner for the last 20 years and practice both on Zoom and in a domestic office.  I work with adults over the age of 18, for both short and long term work.  

My first session

We would normally have an initial discussion by phone on Zoom, for which there would be no charge.

In the first session we need to establish how our work together might meet your needs, and assess the way forward.
