Choosing a therapist can be a stressful process, and it's difficult to decide which kind of therapy to try. Many people find it helpful to work with a therapist who has trained in more than one therapy, who can switch to a different therapy when needed, and who can tailor sessions according to your needs. You can have a phone consultation with me to discuss what you are looking for and ask questions. 16 years experience in supporting neurodivergent clients (with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia or other difficulties) led me to further training in autism, and specialised CBT and ACT for ADHD and emotional regulation problems.

I am a HCPC-registered and BPS chartered Clinical Neuropsychologist, specialising in offering cognitive assessment and therapy to individuals with neurological conditions. Often, the impact of neurological symptoms can be uncertain, bringing up feelings of loss and anxiety. It can be difficult to adjust your lifestyle to the challenges that present, leading to feeling disconnected from what is most important. I pride myself on being conscientious and integral, offering a safe therapeutic space to explore what feels most difficult right now.

Sometimes life can feel like a real struggle. Are your thoughts and feelings reducing your enjoyment of life and your relationships with those around you? Maybe you are experiencing stress or a ‘stuckness’; feelings of anxiety, uncertainty and overwhelm; perhaps you are living with a recent or past loss or relationship difficulties; or is it that a lack of purpose or direction in life is dragging you down? I am an integrative therapist which means that I use elements of different psychological ideas to inform the most appropriate way of working with you. A background in the creative arts enriches and supports my practice.

I can support children and young people who are struggling to attend school and adults who are recently diagnosed or wondering whether they are neurodivergent. I have experience of working with mental health, including anxiety and depression, dementia, addiction and bereavement. My aim is to create a safe space for you to reflect and explore your strengths, challenges and any areas which are causing you difficulty.

Humanistically recognising the needs of an individual ,we see how trauma can be held at a very deep level. Working from the story of an individuals early negative & positive childhood experiences and using Integrative therapy in a number of ways to help the process of getting to one's core beliefs, helps to create a safe space for them to explore and release old patterns. This happens by building a trust with the client to allow their vulnerability to come through. Then, looking at the blocks or defences, via counselling and body Psychotherapy, a unique holistic approach to wellbeing, allows the journey back to health.

People attend counselling for all sorts of reasons. For some of us it helps to have someone outside of friends and family to share our thoughts with and reflect on the challenges we face. Counselling can also be a refuge when crisis hits and we need help to understand and process our experiences. Whatever it is that brings you here, I welcome you and offer you space to think and to connect. My approach is warm and grounded. I work integratively, meaning that I draw on a range of counselling approaches and work with you to agree aims and a pace that is supportive.

Psychotherapy deals with current problems. You may come because of a particular relationship issue or you may not be sure exactly what the problem is but find yourself repeating painful or limiting patterns in life. It may only be through talking to someone that you gain an understanding of what you want to work on. Therapy can be a gradual unfolding process where you have the opportunity to understand how you have become the person you are. This may include talking about how the past has influenced you, exploring your relationships then and now and the way you respond to your life as it is.

Psychotherapy is a rare invitation to truth - a place to explore your self and your story, make sense of why you feel the way you do and ask how you might meet life's challenges in a more authentic, meaningful and fulfilling way. My approach is integrative, creative and embodied. It considers who you are and what happened to you, as well as what your heart desires. As a relational therapist, I also put your experience with me in therapy at the heart of our work together.
