I am an approachable, experienced Integrative therapist with over 15 years experience whose aim is to help alleviate anxiety and get to the roots of the disharmony that you may currently experience in your life. My core training was Person Centred Therapy however I incorporate extensive knowledge of Attachment Theory and Childhood Trauma into my approach.This acknowledges the huge impact our early months/years can have on our emotional (and physical) health and well-being. My most recent training in Internal Family Systems also informs my approach and is a powerful model for understanding the mind as a system of different parts.
In 2015 I set up and led a therapy service for parents for a local charity that supports children and families that have experienced Domestic Abuse. I ran this for 4 years but now run my private practice alongside working as a self employed practitioner for Cornwall Council offering support to families struggling with a trauma and abuse.
Alongside listening to your background and what led you to me , I like to view my clients (adults and young people) through a holistic lens and have a very keen interest in how the likes of screens, sleep, exercise, connecting to nature, nutrition, toxicity, the breath, and gut /oral health affects us emotionally.

I'd aim to create a collaborative, empathic, confidential and open relationship where we can try to see your situation more clearly. If appropriate we would explore the type of nurture you received as an infant and child as this would give us a unique insight into your emotional development. This would take place in a space in which I'd hope you'd feel really listened to and respected.

Although I am trained in Person Centred Therapy I also incorporate knowledge of Attachment Theory and Childhood Trauma into my approach. This acknowledges the huge impact our early months/years can have on our emotional (and physical) health and well-being. Please look at my website at www.swtherapy.net for more information. Alongside working with individuals I also work with families using DDP.
