About me and my therapy practice
I offer counselling sessions outdoors, either walking or sitting in the various parks in the Kingston/ Richmond area, or along the riverside. Wheelchair accessible routes are available. I believe in the importance of embedding ourselves within the wider context and the transformative power of natural surroundings. I will listen to you and support you with exploring how you would like to move forward.
Having previously worked as a massage therapist, I am interested in how the body holds stress. I incorporate my experience with Tai Chi and meditation to enable the embodiment of psychological change. I also have 30+ years experience facilitating outdoors Buddhist retreats.
I completed a BSc degree in Humanistic Counselling at Metanoia Institute. My approach combines Person-centred, Transactional Analysis and Gestalt philosophies. I offer a relational approach in which the client can explore their issues with autonomy and respect. I am committed to the BACP Ethical Framework, and work openly encompassing cultural and gender differences. I am also personally familiar with neurodiversity.
My first session
Before meeting outdoors, I offer a free telephone conversation, to establish your therapeutic direction, and a suitable location to meet. Please email/ call me with your phone number?
