As of 2nd May 2024, I will be available on Thursdays, 9am - 5pm for outdoor and online therapy sessions.
The outdoor therapy sessions (also known as Walk & Talk, Green, or Wild Therapy) will take place in Radyr, North Cardiff, along the River Taff, the canal, or in the woods, depending on the client's preference.
Outdoor sessions are offered in all weathers, with the option of moving sessions online if the conditions are deemed unsafe - or if the client simply prefers to meet online that day.
Online-only sessions are also available.
About me and my therapy practice
I am a qualified Counsellor & Psychotherapist, registered and accredited with the British Association for Counsellors & Psychotherapists (BACP). I currently work for the NHS, as well as privately for a bereavement charity. Prior to these roles I have worked supporting family members in a variety of settings including schools, university, charities, hospices and a children's hospital.
Born abroad, and having travelled and lived in different cities and countries, I bring both experience and a continued interest to cross-cultural work, and the joys and challenges posed by difference.
I love to be outdoors, and the therapeutic impact of nature is something I have not only researched, but have also experienced personally, and increasingly enjoy exploring with my clients.
My main therapeutic goal is to facilitate new understanding and insight for my clients, by providing them with gentle opportunities to consider where they find themselves currently, what is most important to them, and what might be stopping them from thriving.
Practice description
Although trained as an Integrative therapist (drawing on humanistic, psychodynamic and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy counselling theories and models), I prefer to explain my therapeutic approach jargon-free, as one that enables my clients to feel safely heard and held (metaphorically); reflecting on past or present experiences, behaviours, and relationships; naming the change/s they desire; and identifying the resources they have and need (internally and externally) for these changes to be made possible.
My specialist areas of interest are: Bereavement (including bereaved by suicide); living losses (such as life-limiting & chronic health conditions); change/transition; family relationships; identity
As meaning-making creatures, I aim to encourage my clients to explore life's bigger questions too, be this from a particular faith/spiritual viewpoint, or none, and help them consider their sense of purpose.
My hope is that my clients will prepare for, and reflect on, our sessions together, as new self-awareness arises as our therapeutic relationship evolves.
Depending on the preferred therapy time-frame, we will regularly review our work together to ensure the client is having their needs met and/or to readdress the focus of our therapy sessions if need be.
My first session
I offer a free 15 minute consultation (by phone or online) to discuss us working together and to answer any questions you may have. We will discuss the possible focus of your therapy, as well as the therapy time-frame you wish to work towards.
If you decide to pursue therapy with me, our first session will be online, and from then onwards we can continue with online-only therapy sessions or outdoor therapy sessions if you prefer.
All sessions are 50 minutes long.

Practice description
Trained as an Integrative therapist (drawing on humanistic, psychodynamic and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy counselling theories and models), I enjoy a flexible approach to therapy, flexing to the needs and interests of my client. They will determine whether our focus is on bigger existential questions of life and death (and everything in-between); or exploring family relationships and systems both past and present; or the narrative and/or patterns of behaviour that have evolved for the client over time.
Creative; mindful; active; and/or reflective interventions are available to all clients.
As meaning-making creatures, I encourage my clients to explore life's bigger questions, whether from a particular faith/spiritual viewpoint, or none, and to consider their sense of purpose.
