I’m a relational Psychotherapist, Play Therapist (BAPT Registered), Supervisor, and Counselling Lecturer. I offer creative, embodied support for adults, children, families, and therapists. My approach is present-focused, compassionate, and non-judgemental. I have particular experience with trauma and attachment and work with clients to explore relational dynamics, build awareness, and reconnect with parts of themselves that may feel lost or hidden. You can expect a respectful, accepting space where insight, connection, and growth can unfold at your pace.
Therapy is an opportunity to get to know yourself, understand your responses and reactions, explore family dynamics, process trauma, and bring more calm, confidence, joy and play into your life.
I offer a space grounded in trust, curiosity, and care , where your experiences can be explored at your pace. Through relational connection, creative process, and gentle challenge, we’ll work together to support meaningful growth and a deeper sense of self.
