About me and my therapy practice
I am a highly experienced and fully qualified counsellor and psychotherapist with extensive training in integrative and relational psychotherapy. I also have expertise in body therapy and recognise the body’s crucial role in holding and releasing trauma. I hold a master's degree in psychotherapy and an additional master's degree in eurythmy movement therapy. My approach is holistic and considers the whole person - body, soul, mind, and spirit.
My work is focused on empowering clients to lead a self-directed life, where they feel in charge of their destiny and free from emotional burdens. My aim is to help clients achieve autonomy and agency in their life.
I believe that each person is the expert on their own life and that every destiny is deeply personal and unique. My role is to create a safe space where clients feel free to explore their challenges and discover how to free themselves from those challenges. Each client receives an individualised programme tailored to their current needs, which evolves as they progress in their healing. I also provide self-management tools that clients can practise between sessions.
Practice description
I conduct my sessions in a dedicated space where you can leave the world behind and fully focus on yourself. My room, located just off Whiteladies Road in Clifton, is easily accessible by public transport. It is a quiet, calm, and peaceful space, designed to help you process whatever is going on for you.
My first session
If you are curious about working with me, get in touch via the contact function on the left, and we can arrange a free 15-minute phone conversation. After that, if you would like to explore further, I offer a taster session at my usual rate. Choosing the right therapist is an important decision, and I want you to feel no pressure to commit too quickly. In a session with me, you will find a non-judgmental and welcoming space where you can take your time exploring your concerns. You set the pace, and nothing will happen that you do not agree to.
