About me and my therapy practice

I have been in Private Practice for over 20 years, working with all age groups, either as individuals, couples or families. My training is grounded in an Integrative style where what you need from therapy guides the content rather than a fixed approach. Throughout my career I have worked with a plethora of day to day struggles life can present us with. I have a specialism in Eating Disorders which also extends into disordered eating and the way we feel about food, weight and shape. I also deliver courses in this field. There are times when we just need someone to really hear what we are saying, or struggling to say, to help us find a way through what is troubling us. My approach is to have you firmly in the driving seat and I am there as a trusted navigator to get you to a more desirable destination without feeling lost and to arrive with a clear purpose and meaning. Rarely in our lives do we get quality time to just focus on our needs and yet, when we do, it can be very liberating and empowering.
