About me

Creative and body-oriented therapy for adults, children and young people.

Are you looking for a safe, non-judgemental space to explore your life experiences, understand yourself more deeply or navigate difficult emotions? Whether you are looking for practical tools to support your emotional well-being, want to explore new ways of processing what you carry or simply need a confidential environment to speak and be heard, you don't have to navigate it alone.

I am an HCPC-registered Dramatherapist providing warm, neuro and queer-affirmative therapy. My practice meets you exactly where you are, offering a collaborative space where we can work through conversation, creative reflection or body-focused exploration.

Types of therapy I offer

Creative Psychotherapy for Adults
Sessions can include a combination of talking, Dramatherapy and Jungian/transpersonal approaches. You may find that creative approaches for understanding your inner life and personal challenges are powerful tools to support self-insight, healing and authentic expression.

Somatic & Movement-Based Therapy
As a Movement Medicine® teacher, I specialise in somatic and movement practices. We can use movement, embodiment and breath to build bodily self-awareness, process trauma somatically and reconnect with your inner vitality.

Children, Adolescents & Families
I specialise in supporting neurodivergent and vulnerable young people, having worked in mainstream and special education schools for 10 years.

For children, I offer Dramatherapy sessions that centre play, movement and creative expression to build self-esteem, support emotional regulation and social development.

For parents and families
, I provide a compassionate space to process the journey towards diagnosis and to understand how to integrate this knowledge into your family relationships and everyday life. 

Astrology-Integrated Psychotherapy & Astrology Readings
If you find meaning through the language of astrology, I offer stand-alone birthchart, transit, and relocational astrology readings.
I also offer astrology-integrated psychotherapy - an approach to therapy which uses your birthchart and current timing as an additional lens to explore your life story, patterns and potential.

Professional Supervision for Therapists and Counsellors
I am currently training for a Diploma in Creative Approaches to Supervision through the London Centre for Psychodrama. I offer lower-cost supervision for therapists looking for an integrative, creative space to reflect on their practice.

Next steps
It is important that you find the right therapist for you. I offer a free initial 20-30 minute consultation by phone or video call for us to discuss what you're looking for and to see if we'd be a good fit. If you are interested in this, please book an introductory call with me at the top of this page.

Further information

Dramatherapy is a form of psychotherapy that uses creativity, imagination, storytelling, movement, role-play, metaphor, and other expressive methods to support emotional wellbeing and psychological growth. Working through creativity can be a useful way to connect with your feelings if words sometimes feel hard to access. Using creative tools in therapy is therefore a way to access unconscious thoughts and feelings, gain greater clarity, and process experiences in a less direct way.

Movement Medicine® is a dance/movement practice that integrates psychotherapy, neuroscience, and ancient wisdom to foster greater self-connection and self-development. Through a combination of clear, specific practices and the invitation to move freely, Movement Medicine® encourages deeper listening to the information inside our bodies and emotions. This empowers us with better emotional literacy and tools for emotional regulation, as well as the potential for self-development, increased confidence and the courage to express more of who we truly are.
