Often, individual difficulties are accompanied by the challenges of daily life, which make each person’s experience different and their therapeutic needs unique. Through short or long term therapy, I aim to support meaningful change in areas you would like to work on, with an understanding of the wider picture of how these issues may feature in daily life.
I have been working within mental health for over a decade and have experience in higher education, NHS, and the voluntary sector settings. My NHS work has involved forensic and learning disability settings as well as palliative care, working with frontline staff and within direct patient care.
