About me and my therapy practice

I am a pluralistic counsellor and recently completed a MSc. in Pluralistic Counselling by research. I have a particular interest in narrative therapy and how people's stories can grow and change throughout their lives. I know that paying attention to you, the expert in your own life, is the most important thing I can do and exploring theoretical ideas can come later !

Practice description

Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed by life's challenges? You may be struggling with painful experiences, intense emotions or intrusive thoughts, and need a safe place to talk about your thoughts, feelings or concerns.

Recognising that you might need help and support, despite doubts or anxieties, is a courageous step towards healing and personal growth. You are not alone. I am here to provide a confidential, non-judgemental space where you can explore troubled thoughts and feelings and work towards positive change.

I have many years' experience in education, working with special needs and in intentional communities. I will endeavour to build our sessions around you through active collaboration, unconstrained by theoretical frameworks, so we can work together to understand difficulties, explore solutions and move towards meaningful change.

My first session

We start with a brief enquiry. Move on to a free 15 minute phone call. There is no need to share detailed personal information at this stage. Then we book an initial session, in person, online, telephone or a 'Walk and Talk'. Your first session is a chance to talk about what has brought you to therapy, ask questions and consider whether working together feels right
