About me and my therapy practice
People look to therapy for all sorts of reasons. Perhaps you are feeling anxious and it’s getting in the way of you living how you’d like to. Or maybe you are experiencing a feeling of numbness and disconnect to those in your life. It might be that you've experienced a particular or multiple traumatic events, and you're dealing with the impact.
I am an integrative therapist, which means I draw from multiple approaches to suit you and your circumstances. I focus on building a genuine and trusting relationship as an active participant in the therapy. I seek to offer you feedback, insight and to gently challenge you where it feels appropriate.
The idea of looking inward to help understand what’s going on around us can be a scary one, but it can be transformative. My approach is warm, thoughtful and down-to-earth, accompanying and supporting you in your journey.
I am a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), with a Masters (MA) in Counselling and Psychotherapy (Level 7).
Practice description
I have over 10 years of experience supporting people, including in mental health charities, abuse and trauma services, and working with people from different cultures and groups, including neurodivergent people and those from our LGBTQIA+ community. I recognise that people are completely unique with their own histories and tailor my approach to each individual, so that together we can get closer to who you are and what you might want to do in order to move forward.
