Some key issues I specialise in include: improving the safety/quality of relationships (ie. trust, communication, intimacy); improving mental wellbeing (ie. stress, anxiety, depression); recovery from trauma/abuse; parenting/family issues; grief/loss; impact of oppression related to racism, sexism, or gender identity).
Change starts with a willingness to experiment with difference. My role as your therapist is to help you to envision your preferred future and take action to make that vision a reality. You may have questions and uncertainties you wish to explore and I can help you to consider your dilemmas, and help you to make choices to improve your life.

I have training in Restorative justice practices and, training as a Parent support worker, Bereavement training, extensive volunteer work.
Childhood trauma, unhealthy patterns, addiction and trauma can all result in unresolved pain. Being able to explore that pain in a non judgemental, confidential, empathic space can be an essential life changing experience. Many clients come to therapy wanting change and emotional health, awareness of where that pain comes from and the journey to understand its impact on our lives today is a crucial part of healing. Often our trauma is not recognised, believed or simply understood. Yet we're living with the impact of these issues. It takes courage to acknowledge our pain but for those who can it can give us the tools to change.

After years in education I can help with bullying, learning difficulties, adolescence, self-esteem and parenting.
I am a transactional analysis psychotherapist and counsellor. I always appreciate that it takes courage to seek support and the first step can seem daunting. Therapy can help to organise your thoughts and feelings and free you from repeated patterns of behaviour that prevent you from leading a happier and more fulfilling life. You can learn to understand why those patterns are there and how to change them, so that they no longer control what you are trying to achieve for yourself. I work online and face to face (depending on availability of space). The virtual setting is calm, confidential and safe.

Are you an expectant or new parent finding parenthood hard?
I now work as a Clinical Psychologist in two specialist services: an NHS service for expectant and new parents and children’s social services, where I support young people (16-25) leaving the care system. In my different professional roles, I appreciate how our early history and circumstances shape our relational patterns and how we see the world.

Psychotherapy isn’t always about words because at times it can be difficult to talk. My practice incorporates the use of creative methods to aid the expression of feelings and imagery.

I believe that therapy is most useful when we are working on what is important to you, so I draw on a range of therapeutic models depending on your goals. This includes narrative therapy, EMDR, systemic therapy, ACT, compassion focused therapy, attachment-based therapy, trauma-informed therapy, CBT and mindfulness.
