It takes courage and honesty to decide that you are not satisfied with your life. You might know that you need change, but you are not quite sure what, or, how to go about it. Alternatively, you may have a very clear idea of what is getting in the way of you thriving. Perhaps you have found the last couple of years a challenge, or you are generally feeling a bit lost or confused having difficulty processing the impact of the pandemic on you, or your young people/person, or any other barrier/s. Regardless, we can work together to rediscover hope, purpose and joy in your life.

People of all ages have visited my practice. Often, but not always, this might be on the back of a referral from their G.P. Mostly there is dissatisfaction with the way the world is turning for them and something needs to be addressed.

I am sensitive to the lived experiences, diversity and complexity of the LGBTQIA+ community. I am sex-positive and aim to create a space that is inclusive, non-judgemental and able to hold different lives and cultures. We will find this space together. My practice is informed by a long interest in yoga (ashtanga vinyasa), meditation (insight/vipassana) and buddhism (mostly zen). I am interested in the spiritual journey and the existential and deeply personal questions this throws up – particularly when this intersects with being queer. I am also interested in how we construct (and sometimes deconstruct) our ‘working selves’.

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.
