Hi there, thanks for viewing my profile. I'm a relationally focussed counsellor-this means I work hard to get to know you, and understand what makes you tick. We will use the relationship we develop between us to explore what it's like to be you. I understand how powerful it can feel to be truly seen, heard and understood in the world. This is my main aim in working with clients. I enjoy working with people around big questions, and helping people discover their own sense of direction and focus. I'm also skilled and experienced in working with trauma, anxiety, depression, and questions around sexuality, gender and identity.

As we feel better about ourselves we are able to experience improved relationships and make more positive life choices.

I am a Clinical Psychologist and CBT therapist with 10 years of experience providing evidence-based psychological support in the NHS, charity and private sectors. I specialise in working with OCD, trauma (PTSD), anxiety disorders, and self-esteem related issues. That said, you don’t need to be experiencing a ‘disorder’ to benefit from psychological support; sometimes life just feels overwhelming or confusing, and that’s reason enough. Alongside CBT, I also use EMDR, ACT, CFT, and relational approaches in my work. My range of training means that I draw on a number of therapy models to adapt therapy to your unique needs.

My clients have told me that they valued the warmth and acceptance I show in my sessions, which is something I am intensely proud of. Other feedback also highlighted my skills at explaining the rationale behind therapy - helping translate scientific research and therapeutic models into practical skills that make sense for your own situation and context. New clients have fed back to me that I was especially warm and welcoming, helping to normalise and validate difficulties that they have been struggling with. Clients who have experienced therapy before said that I was able to bring insight and understanding to therapy.

The counselling process is very individual, we all have our own experiences and life view. I offer a safe and non judgemental space for my clients, to explore what brings you to counselling. A space where old ways of thinking and feeling can be examined, perhaps old patterns of behaviour no longer feel good to you? Are relationships becoming destructive? Are your boundaries being broken? You may have experinced a loss or a life changing event and need support and space to unpick and understand where you are now.

Many of my clients talk about how counselling allows them to discuss things with someone who is not directly affected, and who will offer a safe place in which to do it. It can provide people the chance to really reflect on how they, themselves are feeling, away from the life and expectations that they experience with others around them. Whatever your reason for reaching out, well done for making this step and I hope that I can be of help :)

EXPLORE - EXPERIENCE - ENGAGE - EMPOWER How we feel can impact on our world significantly. Talking through thoughts and feelings at our own pace can be a helpful way to explore what may lie at the root of pain and difficulty. My endeavour as a PERSON CENTRED NATURE THERAPIST is to work alongside you in finding your way back to a space of balance and wellbeing within. PERSON CENTRED therapy is at the very core of how I work therapeutically and NATURE deepens and inspires that process. Combining these approaches can be a way to explore thoughts and feelings and facilitate healing.

I help adults handle trauma, grief and big life changes. For more rapid change, I offer 1/2-day Therapy Intensives as well as weekly/fortnightly sessions. Are you anxious, overwhelmed, blindsided by life events or exhausted from pretending everything’s fine in your life, work or relationships? Are you struggling to push down past trauma, only for it to push right back up? Maybe you’re flooded with too many emotions at once, so numb that you barely feel anything at all, or you’ve lost a sense of who you are? If you don’t know where to start or find it too daunting to tackle alone, I’m here to help process what’s painful or confusing.
