Deciding to come to therapy, and choosing a therapist, is an incredibly big decision. Over the years, I have found that a lot of my clients have not always had the best experience with practitioners, and this can cause significant anxiety when deciding to access therapy again. Whether you are coming to therapy for the first time, or you have had therapy before, I respect the care and time that is needed to find the right person for you. It is important for you to feel safe and valued for you to explore what is happening in your life. Please don't hesitate to get in touch if you want to learn a little more about me and my approach.
As I embrace a pluralistic approach, I am able to draw on a number of different models of therapy when supporting clients to reach their goals. These models include: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Person-Centred Counselling and Compassion Focussed Therapy. I am also experienced in delivering Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy

I understand that therapy is an investment, so each session must be used wisely and effectively. I have a flat fee of £120 per session, however do offer concessions to student therapists / psychologists. Payments are made via bank transfer or directly from Bupa (if you are registered with them).
