I offer a space where you can explore past patterns in order to bring increased awareness and understanding to the present, opening up possibilities for change and personal growth. 

We often reach a point in our lives where our old ways of coping aren't working anymore, or our old patterns are getting in the way of us being our full selves. 

This can be experienced as a crisis point, when things come to a head, which can feel difficult and challenging but is a great time to come to therapy and explore what's happening so we can move forward with our lives.

Sessions are available at my Therapy Room in Plymstock, which is a warm and welcoming and calm space. 

The therapeutic relationship is different from other relationships – it has boundaries and contains the qualities of warmth, acceptance and compassion. This provides a safe space to explore vulnerabilities, holding them in a kind awareness and attention, allowing for personal growth and change.

I am friendly and easy to talk to. I have over 20 years experience as a therapist, working within the NHS and in Private Practice. My approach is warm and compassionate.

The first session is an opportunity to share your story, to reflect on what's been happening for you to seek therapy at this time and to think about what you'd like to achieve. This is also a time to meet and see if we both feel we can work together - it's really important to find someone that you feel comfortable with.

If you feel you that I might be someone you’d like to work with, contact me for an initial telephone conversation.

I am an experienced supervisor - over the last 25 years I have experience of working with therapists, counsellors, trainees, as well as a variety of health care professionals.

I draw on different models of supervision in an integrated way.  I originally trained with RELATE and draw on the Seven Eyed Model of Supervision.  I have experienced many years of psychodynamic supervision and this influences the way I work. I am trained in Mindfulness-based Contemplative Supervision.

Contemplative Supervision is rooted in relational mindfulness. I bring a compassionate awareness where supervisees are welcomed non-judgementally just as they are in the moment. This helps create the grounding of safety and trust, allowing for the exploration of challenging and difficult material when needed.

I have worked outside with clients for many years and welcome the opportunity to support others in this practice.

I can offer:-

- space to explore what is going on for your clients, for you and within your relationship with each other;

- time to consider your own resourcing to sustain yourself in this process

- reflection about your own processes and development as a person and as a practitioner

- knowledge and understanding of working with clients who have who have complex issues

- an appreciation of the wider context in which you practice

I welcome enquiries from counsellors and therapists who work indoors, outdoors or online.
