About
I am a counsellor and body-based psychotherapist with special interests in all aspects women’s health, trauma and couples therapy. I work collaboratively with clients to find a place of healing and recovery and I'm not the kind of therapist that is ok with “feeling better” if better is still a long way off being truly well. That’s why I feel such an affinity with the word ‘wellbeing’. as it is much more than the absence of disease or illness. Wellbeing is a multidimensional mix of getting your physical, mental and social health in balance, and I have a team of Counsellors working at the practice to support you in your healing.
We relish in what many therapists see as ‘too difficult’ - trauma, attachment wounds, adjustment issues and relationship challenges and have helped hundreds of clients work through their ‘stuff’ with empirically-based modalities such as EMDR. We believe absolutely that every client is unique and work hard to ensure you are fully supported.
I am a noisy advocate about mental health being a part of whole-person health – I believe that we live in a world where we see physical health in terms of strength and fitness whilst mental health is viewed through a lens of stigma, dysfunction and illness. I work tirelessly to address this imbalance. We have low-cost options to enable access to therapy.
