Hello, I have many years of specialist training and experience of helping adults and young people who have experienced abuse and trauma in their past which continues to affect many areas of their life even now in the present moment. I work flexibly both online via Zoom and face to face. People who have worked with me have said that I have been kind, calm, supportive, helpful and non-judgemental in our work together. I understand how difficult it can be to speak about the past and to be vulnerable. I can begin to help you to feel safe enough to work through difficult feelings, emotions and thoughts from our very first session.

I specialise in Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT) along side other integrative therapies such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Mindfulness and hypnotherapy.

Some clients benefit more from rationalising thoughts and beliefs, while some need help getting over the past, and some need help with moving forward. I work with my clients to address issues, create and reach goals, and to help them make the most of everyday life, without the struggles.
