About me and my therapy practice

I am a qualified psychotherapist and psychotherapeutic counsellor, working with couples, individuals and groups. I provide a confidential, supportive and non-judgmental environment to support you in gaining clarity and a deeper understanding of yourself and achieving your objectives.

I currently work from two locations; Braintree and Colchester. Both locations offer peaceful and welcoming spaces within dedicated Counselling and Wellbeing Practices. I also offer online sessions.

Life can be challenging. We might find ourselves grappling with complex and challenging emotions that leave us feeling weighed down. We may find ourselves stuck in patterns of thought, feeling, or behaviour that cause difficulty and may not know where to turn next. I am here to help you find a way forward, whatever your life circumstances may be.

Whether you would like to get support for emotional health or personal growth or you would like to have deeper connections in your relationships, I'd love to hear from you.

Practice description

Experience

I have provided counselling and psychotherapy in a variety of settings, including charitable organisations and the NHS and have experience of working with people (18+) from diverse backgrounds. My specialities include:

  • relationships
  • neurodiversity both in individual and couples work
  • anxiety
  • depression and low mood
  • low self-esteem
  • life transitions (becoming a parent, changing jobs, retirement, relocation, children leaving home etc.)
  • stress management
  • grief and loss
  • trauma and trust issues
  • couples therapy/ couples counselling.

My approach

My therapeutic approach is integrative, underpinned by Transactional Analysis. Transactional Analysis is a versatile and efficient approach to therapy which incorporates important aspects of different types of modalities (humanistic, cognitive behavioural and psychoanalytic).

This means that I make use of a range of therapeutic concepts and methods that are tailored to unique individual needs. My style is collaborative, focused on here-and-now while paying attention to past/present relational experiences (including the therapeutic relationship).

I am passionate about psychological and emotional wellbeing. I believe that we all have the capacity for positive change and personal growth. I adopt an empathic and respectful approach while offering gentle challenges.

In couples therapy, we would focus on you and your partner's relationship, past and present ways of relating and your connection as a couple. 

Length and format of therapy

I offer short, medium/long-term therapy depending on your needs and preference. When therapy is short-term, we might focus on an issue that is at the forefront of your mind. Or you may wish to work long-term to deepen your understanding of yourself and your relationships.
