I believe I have had an unusual but a very fortunate life. My parents worked abroad and I grew up in India and Australia before being sent to boarding school at age 7. This experience taught me a lot about life, being independent and resilient. Despite my struggles with dyslexia and ADHD, I survived, and became a PE teacher, working in state and independent secondary schools before moving into Special Education. In all these positions I also held senior pastoral roles. My background has shown me the importance of building trust, encouraging open honest, communication, and creating, a safe, non-judgemental environment for clients.
By developing trusting therapeutic relationships I seek to help clients acquire relevant strategies to overcome resistance and motivate expansion. I have experience in working with clients presenting with anxiety, panic disorder, depression, loss and bereavement issues, trauma and emotional dysregulation.
I am an approachable, open therapist; a good listener and communicator. I offer a free, no-obligation, 30 minute introductory session to give you the opportunity to see whether you feel my approach would be helpful and whether we might work well together.
