Reaching out can feel daunting - I offer empathy and a safe, supportive, environment in which we can explore issues and identify: your strengths, values, goals, alternative perspectives and potential changes. Many clients present with anxiety, depression, stress or lacking meaning/joy - we can address the issues that may feel overwhelming and disentangle them. We can either work on longer-term deeper changes or employ short-term strategies. Personal histories can impact on people and you have the option to address yours and change your lived experience. I work with diverse clients of all ethnicities/genders/sexualities/body shapes.

Does this sound familiar? On the outside you seem to have it all together but on the inside you feel like you are falling apart. You are constantly striving to feel confident and secure within yourself but instead you: continuously battle with self-criticism, struggle to make decisions without the approval of others, feel burnt out from people pleasing and always putting the needs of others first. You find that you need validation from others in order to feel good about yourself but often feel inadequate, like a failure and misunderstood. Even when surrounded by others you feel alone.

SERVICES I PROVIDE: Like all forms of therapy, integrative therapy requires that you are open to exploring your fears, your hopes, your life, what is causing you challenges, and what you hope for your future. But if you like the idea of a therapy which is a bit more bespoke and less rigid than other forms, then integrative therapy might indeed be for you. Would you like to try this type of therapy?

During these difficult times of coronavirus and lockdown, I am offering sessions via the phone, Skype, and FaceTime. They are accepted methods also within the NHS, where I originally learnt to work with them. I am an integrative counsellor/psychotherapist having worked extensively in the NHS but now work privately. My background in the NHS has made me comfortable working within a multicultural context (LGBT and BME) with a very wide age group of clients (18 -90). I have also studied Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and can offer this separately.

You may be struggling with a clearly defined issue or general 'stuckness in life'. Maybe you need to understand what it is. You may have experienced it for long or a new difficulty intruding in your life. Possibly something you are keeping from others or maybe someone has suggested you seek help for it. It may affect only you or your relationship with loved ones. Maybe you are seeking help with a couple issue you've tried to work on with your partner. You may feel hopeless, having tried everything to solve it. In any case, therapy can be used to make sense of the situation and think of a strategy to move forward towards your goals.

The therapeutic process can help identify and understand what is happening in your inner world, in your relationships, your behavioural patterns and the difficulties in your experiences of the world. My approach is warm, supportive, open-minded and valuing. I believe that fundamentally we seek to know ourselves, to attune to our relationships, and to make sense of our story. These insights provide a foundation for a stronger sense of self, more fulfilling relationships, and an expanded perspective on life. Whilst therapy can provide symptomatic relief, my hope is that it will also bring you deeper awareness and sustainable progress.

Life can be full of uncanny sensations or unpleasant feelings. These feelings sometimes become unbearable and overwhelming, making each day a challenge. There are many different potential causes for our distress. Sometimes they can stem from confusion over choices we are forced to make, or from the questions that arise when we think about who we are, or what we want. Finding a safe, welcoming space to address a painful or peculiar experience in life can be challenging. When we ask for help, we have already made a choice to pursue a change.

I offer a safe and confidential space where together we can explore your difficulties and help you get a deeper understanding of your inner self. In my approach I concentrate on both the past and the present: on how our past and unconscious feelings influence our current thinking and behaviour. I believe in the uniqueness of every individual, with their own life experiences that shaped them into the person they are. I also believe in the importance of creating a trusting and supportive therapeutic relationship where you can feel safe to share and explore whatever is worrying you.

Hello and Welcome, Life has indeed become complex. Many of us are now struggling with our mental health in ways that are no longer manageable. Our past and present hurts, our unprocessed feelings have risen to the surface. We find ourselves thinking, feeling and acting in ways that do not reflect who we want to be. Some of us have Grief, Trauma or Addiction that we just can’t seem to work through. As a Senior Accredited Psychotherapist with a Master Degree and EMDR Accredited, I've seen thousands come through my door, with various presenting issues and undergo genuine transformation, healing and leave with hope for the future.

Sometimes life hits hard and we find it hard to cope. Sometimes everything seems to be well, and still, we are unhappy. There are times when we feel haunted by our past, and times when we just don’t understand some parts of ourselves - thoughts, emotions, or even physical pain. And we are going through increasing global uncertainty: Covid, the current political and financial situation, wars and climate change are only a few of the unsettling topic we are exposed to 24/7 - we are facing a previously unimaginable amount of collective stress, anxiety and grief.
