While we're in lockdown I am doing all sessions online via Zoom (best for security), Skype, FaceTime, WhatsApp or phone. In normal circumstances I can see you face to face in my consulting room in Norwich.

About me and my therapy practice

My approach is integrative which means I draw on a range of therapy models (including person-centred, Mindfulness-Based CBT, relational, Compassion Focus Therapy for trauma, Solution-Focused Therapy and systemic) to find a way of working which best suits your needs.
