About me
I work closely with people who want to understand themselves more deeply and live in a way that feels true. I offer collaborative evidence-based therapy that supports emotional flexibility, self awareness, and meaningful, lasting change — drawing from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavioural Therapy (REBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Clinical Hypnotherapy.
At the heart of my practice is a deep belief that healing, self-acceptance, authenticity, and growth are possible for everyone — without exception.
The work we do together is always trauma-informed, attuned to the nervous system, and sensitive to the impact of past experiences on present difficulties.
Sessions are relaxed and informal and you are certainly not expected to do all the talking. There will be plenty of dialogue and I am here to to guide the process and offer you a non-judgemental space to explore your inner and outer world. You will gain tools that you can best use to move towards the life you love. I am trained in a number of approaches which are evidenced to compliment and support each other. This allows me to be creative in how I formulate treatment plans to your individual needs.
Experiences I support include:
Depression, anxiety, and stress
PMDD, perimenopause, menopause, fertility, childbirth and postnatal care
Relationship conflict, couples therapy, and family issues and parenting
Support with identity, meaning, and life choices
Bereavement and grief
Trauma, PTSD, and emotional or physical abuse
Panic attacks and phobias
Low self-worth and shame
OCD and ADHD
Body-mind conditions and chronic illness
My practice is based at a beautiful rural retreat just outside Ashburton, Devon, where you’ll be surrounded by nature and care.
