About me and my therapy practice
Passionate about my work and the people I work with, I provide a safe and non-judgmental space where clients will feel respected and listened to.
I am based in Haywards Health/Lindfield, West Sussex.
I am registered to council adults over the age of 18, I offer talking, walking and creative therapies. I am able to teach children in matters relating to personal, social and sexual health education.
My background is in counselling, nursing, teaching and the arts, working in both public and private sectors in the UK and overseas.
Practice description
TALKING THERAPY
Being listened to and talking about your feelings and experiences with a trained therapist can help you find your own answers. Some people worry about not having something to ‘say’ silence is part of the therapeutic process. I offer this service face to face, online or by phone.
WALKING THERAPY
Walking and being outdoors is an alterative to the traditional talking therapy. Being outdoors can feel less formal and more relaxed bringing movement into the session.
CREATIVE THERAPY
We will use colour and drawing materials, allowing you to express and explore your emotions through the creative process. We look to the old masters, painters and illustrators as well as children’s story books for inspiration. You do not need to be an experienced artist to access this therapy.
My first session
I will ask you to complete a health questionnaire and provide me with your contact details. All information is kept safe.
