At times life can be tough and we have all needed some support at one time or another. You may be experiencing low mood, stress or anxiety or facing situations your struggling to make sense of.

I am a trauma-informed and experienced (12yrs) Humanistic Integrative LGBTQ affirmative counsellor. I was based at Over the Rainbow Sexual Health Clinic in Bournemouth until 2017. I've facilitated LGBTQ+ and wellbeing groups for Dorset Mind prior to starting my full time private practice.
Due to cis, hetero and mono normativity, many LGBTQ+ people haven't felt safe enough to connect with their deepest thoughts, feelings and needs. I provide a safe, informed and affirmative space. I integrate Mindfulness, CBT, CPT, DBT Skills Training, IFS and Emotional Freedom Techniques to address the impact of trauma on the brain and body.

Each of us has a unique story, that deserves an equally tailored approach. I have been working with individuals since 2006, and couples since 2009. This means, I have probably helped others, deal with similar issues, to those you're going through. We will explore the difficulties as they are now, and understand where they have come from. Through self discovery, we will identify how old patterns of thinking, limiting beliefs, or unhelpful behaviours are holding you back. You'll gain a clearer perspective on your circumstances, identify your priorities, and enjoy a more positive outlook

Clinical Psychologists are unique to other type of therapists as we are trained to a high standard in more than one therapeutic approach. This allows me to provide you with an individualised, specialist care plan, using one or more therapeutic approach to suit your needs. As a clinical psychologist I am trained in the use of psychological formulation; together we will consider your past experiences, current difficulties and your strengths in order to provide a thorough understanding of what has lead you to seek support.

I believe that everybody is different and as such work to help develop an understanding of what is going on for you, before exploring what intervention is likely to be the most effective. I also complete ASC assessments as part of a multi disciplinary team

Together, we honour your innate wisdom, personal growth, identity, and journey toward liberation.

Do you feel stuck, sad, or anxious? Are you an adult struggling with life right now? Or a parent concerned for your child or teen? Life can throw up difficulties at any time, a difficult childhood, trauma, or a relationship breakdown. You or your child may have experienced bullying, difficulties fitting in or managing social and cultural expectations. These experiences can lead to the development of anxiety and low mood, self esteem issues, and other mental health difficulties. Therapy can help you to understand yourself, and the impact of your thoughts and behaviours more deeply.
