MNCPS (Accred) BSc Integrative Therapist/Clinical Supervisor

About me

Are anxiety, low mood, or past experiences impacting your daily life or relationships?
You’re not alone—and reaching out is a courageous first step.

I offer a safe, supportive, and non-judgemental space where we can explore what’s troubling you and work towards a more balanced and fulfilling life. My goal is to help you build positive coping strategies that support lasting change.

I work with a wide range of issues, including:

Trauma, abuse, childhood abuse and dissociation including D.I.D            Anxiety,  General anxiety disorder (GAD), panic, OCD, phobias
Depression, low self-esteem, feeling sad, low confidence
Bereavement and loss
Relationship and family difficulties (including couples therapy)
Addictions, anger, and self-harm                                                                          ADHD and autism


I'm a qualified Integrative Counsellor, tailoring therapy to your unique needs using approaches such as:

Person-Centred Therapy
CBT
Psychodynamic Therapy
Transactional Analysis
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy
Personal Construct Theory


I also offer couples counselling and am trained in REWIND Therapy, a non-disclosure method effective in treating trauma and phobias.

I have extensive experience supporting clients with complex trauma, including those living with Dissociative Identity Disorder (D.I.D). My trauma-informed approach is gentle, respectful, and paced to your needs, with a focus on safety, stabilization, and integration.

Sessions are available face-to-face or online, short-term or open-ended, with flexible options to suit your schedule. Extended sessions and combined formats are also available.

Wheelchair user access info
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
