About me and my therapy practice
A humanistic therapist focused on entrepreneurs, intra-preneurs, and their families.
Practice description
I have over twenty years’ experience of being an entrepreneur in the private sector, having been both a founder and co-founder in a number of different companies - some successful and some (very much!) not.
I have also worked within two non-profit organisations as an intra-preneur, successfully creating and carrying forward unique projects from within. On a more personal level, I have been married to an entrepreneur for nearly 25 years.
Throughout this time, I have both witnessed and experienced the often transformative effect of humanistic therapy. Several years ago I decided to retrain in order to specifically ensure I could help others undergoing the same unique experience.
My humanistic approach is grounded in existentialist psychotherapy, a positive approach that explores the choices we have, the freedom we have to make them, and how they can help us find meaning.
Originally from the US, but having lived in the UK for over two decades, I also have a keen interest in the ways in which cultural expectations and norms influence entrepreneurs and the support they do (or don’t) receive.
I am available to meet online or over the telephone, regardless of where you are located. If you would prefer to meet in person, I am based in Cambridge, U.K.

I always offer a 15-minute introductory meeting (online) at no cost. This way I can answer any questions you might have and to ensure that we both feel that there is potential for a good therapeutic relationship to develop.
