About me and my therapy practice


Experienced Psychotherapist

I’m a counselling psychotherapist (MA SOPH Psychotherapy, MBACP Accredited) with additional training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness, Trauma-Focused Therapy, and EMDR. I use a range of evidence-based approaches to help people make sense of past experiences, work through phobias or adverse childhood events, and process PTSD and trauma symptoms in a safe, grounded way.

My core psychotherapy training was a Masters with a developmental Jungian orientation, which means I pay close attention to early experiences and the inner world. My approach is pluralistic and draws on a blend of theories, including Freudian and post-Freudian ideas about childhood development (such as the work of Klein, Winnicott, Erickson, and Bowlby), as well as Jungian and post-Jungian perspectives on the self, creativity, dreams, and individuation.

I offer client-led therapy both in person and online, using platforms such as Microsoft Teams, WhatsApp, or Skype—whatever feels most comfortable for you.

As an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, I work to their professional ethical standards.

I’m also a member of EMDR UK

I bring 15 years of experience and over 2,000 hours of clinical practice, gained through private work and multidisciplinary teams within the charity sector.


Practice description

Types of Therapy

Psychodynamic Psychotherapy

If you’re curious about how your past experiences shape the way you feel and relate today, psychodynamic therapy can help. Together, we gently explore the patterns, beliefs, and emotional “walls” that may have formed in response to difficult moments. Sometimes these old defences no longer serve us, and therapy offers a safe space to look at them with fresh eyes.

If it feels helpful, we can also bring in meditation skills, imagination work, or dream exploration.

We’ll work at your pace in a collaborative, person-led way. Sometimes I may suggest reflective exercises, creative inner work, or reading between sessions to support your process.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) & Mindfulness

CBT is a focused, practical therapy for when you want support with a specific problem. It’s goal-oriented and works by helping you recognise unhelpful thought patterns so you can create healthier emotional and behavioural responses. We work as a team, using tools like thought charts, mindfulness exercises, and gentle homework to support change in your day-to-day life.

Trauma-Focused Therapy

Trauma-focused therapy helps you understand how past experiences may still be affecting your emotional, physical, or relational wellbeing today. It offers a compassionate, evidence-based way to explore the impact of trauma while developing tools to feel safer, stronger, and more in control.

EMDR

EMDR is a gentle, structured therapy that helps the brain process distressing memories. While focusing on a specific memory, we use bilateral stimulation—such as eye movements, tapping, or sounds—to support your brain’s natural healing process.

The memory doesn’t disappear, but the intensity often softens, making it easier to think about without becoming overwhelmed. EMDR can help with trauma, anxiety, phobias, grief, and other emotional difficulties.

Your first session is charged at the usual rate and includes a gentle assessment of your history, current concerns, and what you hope to gain from therapy.

If you’d find it helpful, I can also provide a written outline of our agreed focus areas and the therapeutic tools we may use.
