About me and my therapy practice

I run a private practice in Hadleigh, Essex.

I strive for a practice that welcomes and affirms all people, regardless of ethnicity, age, class, gender identity, sexual orientation, or religion.

I have a myriad of experience working with those that have had challenging lives. I have worked in the Criminal justice system, NHS/ Mental Health Psychiatric Units and in the Education system.

I hold an Enhanced criminal record check provided by the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) and I am a Member of MBACP (Accred)

I also work with private insurance companies.


Practice description

I am an integrative trained counsellor which means I draw upon different modalities and theories to ensure my client is offered therapy that is tailored to their own individual needs. I use various forms of Therapy: CBT, Transactional Analysis, Person-Centred and Solution Focused Therapy.

I offer a safe, empathic and non-judgemental space to understand and make sense of how things are for you, so together we may explore what you wish to achieve.

I have a particular professional interest in those with Special Educational Needs, complex teenage issues and trauma.


My first session

In the first instance, I offer a free 30 minute phone call. This allows me to get an idea of how you respond to a small trail of therapy, and for us to agree if we would like to further work together.

Thereafter my sessions run for 55 minutes.

I find weekly sessions create momentum which supports the therapeutic process. Some clients move to fortnightly sessions once the work is established. I also have many clients who 'dip in' monthly for their therapeutic session to sustain their well being and balance thoughts.
