About me and my therapy practice

I am a counsellor, psychotherapist and supervisor. 

Experience

Initially, I trained as an occupational therapist, where I gained experience working in the NHS with people living with a range of conditions affecting their mental health, cognitive skills and physical health and abilities. This combined with placement experience in an NHS IAPT service means that I have skills in supporting people with mental health difficulties to navigate this complex system. 

I hold an MSc in Dementia Studies and my highest level counselling qualification is a Level 7 Post Graduate Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy, where I gained a distinction. 

As a counsellor and psychotherapist I have worked in private practice, bereavement services and in sexual violence services. I have also acted as a supervisor for Cruse Bereavement and delivered bereavement training on behalf of Leeds Bereavement Forum and Cruse Bereavement to volunteers and a range of organisations. I have a special interest in making bereavement support accessible for people with learning disabilities. 

Current Work

I work with adult clients from age 16+ offering in person and video sessions via Zoom to clients across the UK. I also offer supervision. I am currently focusing on supervising trainee therapists. 

I am also a Senior Lecturer in Psychotherapy at Metanoia Institute. I also undertaking a PhD exploring the experiences of older adults who have been affected by sexual abuse. 

Practice description

How I work

I am a relational, integrative therapist  drawing strongly on humanistic and psychodynamic concepts. I am also influenced by the pluralistic approach and strive to apply trauma informed principles to my work. Depending on the specific needs of clients I integrate additional approaches exploring significant events and illuminating relational patterns, while holding the clients phenomenological experiencing mind. I may use elements of parts work, creative therapy (e.g. objects). I integrate neuro-biologically informed psycho-education, helping client to understand the basis of their trauma responses.


Supervision

My supervision experience includes supervising clinicians in the NHS, trainee therapists and volunteers at Cruse Bereavement. I have also written a Level 6 Distance Learning module on Supervision for students studying a Top-Up degree in Counselling at Leeds Beckett University.

I have been trained in the use of a number of supervision models including the 7 eyed model and the Cyclical Model.  However, the specific approach we take to  supervision will become unique to your own needs. We will explore your specific supervision needs, your goals and mandatory requirements of your course. I take a developmental approach to supervision, so the way we work will vary, depending on where you are in your training. We will work together to support your development into an independent practitioner.
