Practice description
Welcome to my therapy practice. With over 14 years of experience in private practice, EAP, and agency counselling services, I am dedicated to supporting individuals and couples in their journey towards personal growth and emotional well-being.
As a qualified therapist, I offer a range of counselling and psychotherapy services, including individual therapy, couple counselling, EMDR and clinical supervision. My approach is grounded in Humanistic theory, complemented by Relational Transactional Analysis, Mindfulness-based, and CBT-based therapies. Through a collaborative and supportive process, I help clients explore and resolve issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, and relationship challenges.
For those looking for couple counselling, I work with all types of relationships, including marriages, partnerships, and friendships, regardless of sexual orientation. I provide a safe environment where couples can navigate difficult subjects and make positive
EMDR therapy is an evidence-based treatment initially developed for trauma and PTSD. It helps clients process and integrate distressing thoughts, events and memories. EMDR can be used alone or in conjunction with other forms of therapy. When combined, EMDR enhances the therapeutic process by addressing deeply ingrained emotional issues, facilitating healing and symptom relief.
If you're a counselling student or a qualified practitioner seeking supervision, I offer individual sessions to help you grow professionally and ensure the best care for your clients.
To ensure a good fit, I invite you to a low-cost introductory session, where we can discuss your needs and goals. I offer face-to-face meetings as well as online sessions via Facetime/Zoom.

Practice description
Supervision helps your growth as a counselling professional. As an experienced supervisor, I offer a collaborative and enriching environment for trainees and qualified practitioners to enhance their skills and excel in their therapeutic practice.
I have 14 years of experience in private practice, EAP, and agency counselling services, using an approach that combines Humanistic theory, Relational Transactional Analysis, Mindfulness-based, and CBT-based tools. Through this integrative framework, I can provide tailored guidance to suit your unique needs and areas of interest.
I use the 7-eyes supervision model of Robin Shohet and Marco Mazzetti’s theories. The main elements of the supervision are forming a healthy and boundaried professional relationship with my Supervisees.
Whether you're a student just starting your counselling journey or a seasoned practitioner seeking to deepen your expertise, I am here to support you every step of the way. Our supervision meetings can take place face-to-face or through online platforms like Facetime/Zoom, making it convenient for supervisees from various locations.
I understand the value of individualised support, and my supervision sessions are geared towards your personal and professional growth. Together, we'll explore ethical considerations, reflect on your therapeutic practice, and address any challenges you may encounter. My goal is to empower you with the tools and insights necessary to provide exceptional care to your clients.
During the low-cost introductory session, we can get to know each other, discuss your supervision requirements, and identify how my expertise can complement your learning journey.
Confidentiality is of utmost importance, and I strictly adhere to the BACP code of ethics. You can trust that our supervision sessions will be held in a safe, respectful, and confidential space.
